Logans Dash Wins Biscayne Stakes

Hialeah, FL – Jan. 8, 2012 - Anibal Hernandez's Logans Dash scored a half-length victory in Sunday's $22,625 Biscayne Stakes for 3-year-olds at Hialeah Park.

Saddled by Manuel Mata and ridden for the first time in a race by Jeremy Garcia, Logans Dash covered 250 yards in :13.275 while earning a 94 speed index. The winner's share of the Biscayne Stakes purse pushed the filly's bankroll to $47,274 from nine starts.

Logans Dash was bred in Louisiana by Triple M Farms LLC. The filly's sire, Toast To Dash was the AQHA champion 2-year-old colt in 1996. Toast To Dash's top earners include Angelas Toast, a 13-time stakes winner in Louisiana from 2005-10, and graded stakes winner and '05 All American Futurity (G1) third-place finisher Brindis Por Cayenne.

An 18-year-old son of the Dash For Cash stallion Victory Dash, Toast To Dash is owned by Robert and Karen Nunnally, and he stands for a $4,000 fee at Jude and Regina Robicheaux's Robicheaux Ranch at Breaux Bridge, Louisiana.

Logans Dash is the first starter produced by Logans Game, an 8-year-old mare by Game Patriot who won the $213,000 Louisiana Breeders' Lassie Futurity (RG2) at Delta Downs in 2006. The filly's third dam, the Special Effort mare Shesa Screamer, was a two-time futurity winner at Mt. Pleasant Meadows in Michigan in 1990.

Logans Dash has won three races, including a 330-yard, $7,500 claiming sprint for Louisiana-breds at Evangeline Downs on November 23. She was claimed by her current connections out of that race.

This Panther Purrs ran second and was followed by 5-2 favorite Rapid Ivory, Ivory Rain, Rare Ivory Note, Special Awards, Theangelshavespoken, Mukewater Creek, and Oceans Potion.

A bay colt by '03 AQHA champion aged stallion Panther Mountain, This Panther Purrs is a maiden who has banked $5,123 from three races for his owner, Fransisco Ramos. This Panther Purrs was coming off of a fourth-place finish in a 300-yard, $12,000 maiden special weight dash at Hialeah on December 16.

Rapid Ivory was three weeks removed from a fourth-place finish as the 6-5 favorite in the 220-yard, $20,000 Mockingbird Stakes at Hialeah Park. The bay Ivory James colt, who races for Bobby R. Byrd, has won four of seven races and has earned $137,688, and his stakes record includes victories in the October 22, $109,400 Governor's Stakes at Hoosier Park, and the July 2, $115,160 Heartland Futurity at Indiana Downs.
