Jess Savin Candy fastest qualifier on final day of trials for All American Futurity

Multiple Grade 1 winner Jess Savin Candy was the fastest qualifier on Day 2 of trials for the $3 million All American Futurity, according to a Twitter post by Ruidoso Downs.

There were a total of 30 trials held over two days, with the horses with the five fastest times from each day earning a spot in the starting gate for the finale Sept. 6.

Jess Savin Candy ($2.60) covered 440 yards on a fast track in 21.18 seconds. He won by a half-length. Jess Savin Candy won the fifth of 15 trials Saturday at Ruidoso Downs. 

He is now positioned to bid for a historic feat. He will attempt to become just the second Quarter Horse in history to win his sport's Triple Crown for 2-year-olds. Earlier this meet, Jess Savin Candy won the first two futurities in the series, the Ruidoso and the Rainbow.  

Francisco Calderon is the regular rider of Jess Savin Candy for Dutch Masters III and trainer John Stinebaugh.
