Coronation Futurity
1 1/8 Mile Dirt Stake Purse $250.000 Open 2 Year Olds Foaled In Canada.

1st Awesome Return Axeman Hernandez J J

This looked like the one before the race and in the end he proved just too classy for his rivals. This effort really confirmed the promise he showed in the Pharaoh last time and with this nine furlong win under his belt and looking like he would stay even further the trainer can start getting excited about the TC chase next year.

2nd Abominable Mb Stables Velazquez J R

Made the running at a good clip but was pretty much a target for anything coming from behind as is usually the case in these types of races. Only beaten a half length this was a good effort.

3rd Tempura Mb Stables Davis D

The trainer put one at the front and one at the back and they ended up finishing within a half length of each other in second and third.

4th Rule By Secrecy Nakamura Stables Ryan S

Never really got into it and was not in the same class as the first three.
