Dash For Cash Futurity Qualifiers

After having the fastest qualifier with Jessies First Card in Friday’s Dash For Cash Derby (G2) trials at Lone Star Park, owner Rita Sosa, trainer Jose Gamez and jockey Juan Pulido did the same during Saturday’s 10 trials for the $421,500 Dash For Cash Futurity (G2) with Ivory Macho Man. The KJ Mucho Macho Man gelding won his trial by two lengths in :19.519 to earn a 98 speed index at 400 yards.

Bred in Oklahoma by his owner, Ivory Macho Man has won three of four career starts. His first two wins came at Remington Park against maiden claiming company and then allowance foes. His only defeat was a second-place finish in a trial for the Speedhorse Futurity (G3) at Fair Meadows.
