Shotgun Kowboy becomes just second Okie-bred to win

Oklahoma Derby

Shotgun Kowboy (Kodiak Kowboy) made history on Sunday when posting a half-length

victory in the $420,000 Oklahoma Derby (G3) at Remington Park. Bred, owned

and trained by C.R. Trout, the dark bay gelding is just the second Oklahoma-bred

to win the

Oklahoma Derby since Clever Trevor captured the inaugural running in 1989.

Shogun Kowboy also gave jockey Cliff Berry his third win in the race when

finishing 1 1/8 miles in 1:48.91.

One race earlier, Include Betty (Include) gutted out a half-length score in

the $200,000

Remington Park Oaks.

There were seven total stakes at Remington Park on Sunday, and the undercard

was

highlighted by Ivan Fallunovalot's (Valid Expectations) 2 1/2-length win in

the $153,000

Remington Park Sprint Cup. The five-year-old gelding ran fourth in this same

race a year ago and this time around was using it as a prep for the Breeders'

Cup Sprint (G1) on October 31 at Keeneland.
