Arizona Breeders’ Day at Arizona Downs, held on Aug. 31 at the Prescott Valley facility, started with a threat of rain but inclement weather held off and made for an enjoyable day of racing. The luncheon and membership meeting was attended by 85 members. Everyone enjoyed the lunch and the racing card. Congratulations to everyone and thank you for your support.
Among the highlights of the day’s racing was a six and a half-length victory by odds-on Brazen Now in the Las Vegas Ranch Stakes for 2-year-olds and a one-length win by Reign of Fire over 1-2 Tactical Attack in the Coyote Springs Stakes.
