Sunland
Park, NM - March 29, 2011 - My Homey broke his maiden with a six-length
victory in the first of three Copper Top Futurity (R)--colts and
geldings division trials at Sunland Park on Tuesday.
Ridden by J.
Martin Bourdieu for owners Steve Prather, Bessie Prather, and
Hermenegildo “Poppy” Aldavaz, My Homey went 4 ˝ furlongs in :52.47 while
scoring his first victory in two starts. Aldavaz saddled the homebred
2-year-old gelding by the Giant's Causeway stallion The Way Home.
Also, J.
Kirk Robison's Koufax made his career debut with a half-length win in
the third trial. A dark bay colt by Minister Eric trained by Henry
