Qualifying Jockey: Much like the horse he is riding, Felipe Garcia-Luna is the least experienced jockey in this year’s All American Futurity.

Pedigree: Mr Perry Cartel is by champion No. 2 freshman sire Carters Cartel ($659,146), who in 2007 won the Grade 1 Ed Burke Million and Golden State Million futurities.

The gelding is the first starter out of the winning Mr Jess Perry mare Miss Lena Perry ($86,353), who was second in Jess Significant’s Ruidoso Futurity (G1).
