Four Brethren Runners in Stakes Action Saturday
Friday, August 4, 2017

    Pleasant Acres Stallions' Brethren has a chance to make a huge move upwards on the freshman sire lists tomorrow with no less than four entrants scheduled to contest three stakes races. 

    Dunk and Tip Sheet, both owned and bred by Arindel, are entered in the field of eight for the $100,000 Dr. Fager Stakes in the first round of the Florida Sire Stakes series. Dunk broke his maiden by 8 3/4 lengths on July 15, getting 5 1/2 furlongs in an excellent 1:04.82. He has talented Emisael Jaramillo in the saddle. Tip Sheet won on July 6 with five furlongs in :59.49 and has Aby Medina aboard. 

    In the $100,000 Desert Vixen, the companion race for fillies, Awesome Mass should be favored off her 11 3/4-length score on July 20, in which she raced five furlongs in :57.18, just four-fifths of a second off the track record. Jaramillo is aboard the filly. There are eight set to go in the six-furlong test. 

    At Louisiana Downs, Feisty Embrace has Colby Hernandez aboard for the $50,000 Louisiana Cup Juvenile Fillies. The Louisiana-bred filly owned and bred by Matalona Thoroughbreds broke her maiden at Evangeline Downs on June 16, becoming Brethren's first winner.
