In 1986, Mr. and Mrs. Hubbard established the R.D. and Joan Dale Hubbard Foundation and since that time, the foundation has provided more than $32 million in grants to deserving organizations across America with more than $14 mil-lion of those grants going to improve the lives of the citizens of New Mexico.

In 2001, the Hubbard Foun-dation’s Southeast New Mexico Grant Program was established in seven southeast New Mexico counties, specifi cally for orga-nizations who help the commu-nity, grassroot organizations that work hard to improve the qual-

ity of life of this area’s citizens. Since 2001, this program has awarded more than $2.3 million in grants to a total more than 440 organizations.

This year, the foundation award-ed $260,000 to 46 great community groups throughout Southeast New Mexico.

The Boys and Girls Club of Hobbs provides a learning cen-ter allowing children to come to the club after school and do their homework. Many families do not have computers and the learning center provides today’s technol-ogy to assist with the education of their members.

JUNE 7 • 9 a.m.Ruidoso Futurity & Derby

on105.1 FM and 1490 AM

Record-breaking races to run this weekendBy Todd FuquaSports [email protected]

Humans can’t predict what will happen the next day, much less the next hour – something which makes betting on horse racing seem like a fool’s er-rand much of the time.

Jockey Esgar Ramirez doesn’t see it that way. Of course, he wouldn’t, having ridden the fastest qualifi ers to this year’s Ruidoso Derby and Futurity – races which will be run June 8-9 at Ruidoso Downs Race Track.

Ramirez was on board One Quick Eagle when the horse covered 350 yards in 17.255 seconds on May 24 during the Ruidoso Futurity trials.

He was also lucky enough to be astride Charvet in the Ruidoso Derby trials the following day in the fi nal Ruidoso Derby trial. The gelding raced to a 19.151-second time – both the fast-est on the day and the fastest Ruidoso Downs had ever seen at 400 yards.

Not only were both horses ridden

by Ramirez, they’re both owned by Crowson Racing and trained by Victor Rodriguez-Flores. Is there any pressure to do well knowing you have the fastest horses in the mix and are running for the same boss?

“I’m not too nervous, every race is different,” Ramirez said. “There’s always a little emotion for the horse’s connections, but when you have the fastest qualifi er, the expectations are higher. If we win, we win.”

Ramirez is smart and experienced enough to know that the Derby – to be run June 8 – and the June 9 Futurity aren’t coronation races for his charges, no matter how fast and talented they may be. There are still nine others in the running for the record purses in each race.

The Futurity tops out at $750,000 this year, with $315,000 going to the winner, while the lion’s share of the Derby’s $822,603 purse is $345,493 – both records for the Ruidoso Derby.

One Quick Eagle’s strongest

competitor will likely be Strategic Weapon, a gelding owned and bred by Johnny Trotter which ran 17.327, just behind One Quick Eagle coming out of the same trial. The two were locked in competition in a schooling race two weeks before.

The horse closest to Charvet’s time is A Dream To Remember, trained by Paul Jones and owned by R.D. Hubbard, Johnny Cope and

Butch Southway. The fi lly stopped the clock at 19.205 – more than one-tenth of a second slower than Charvet. In a race going 400 yards, that can seem like a mile.

“Being the fastest doesn’t mean much until we run the race,” Ramirez said. “When the training is good, you just ride the best you can. With a little bit of luck – if these horses run well – they could win both races.”

This weekend at Ruidoso DownsThe fi rst Grade 1 weekend at Ruidoso Downs provides record-setting purses for the $822,000 Ruidoso Derby on Saturday and the $750,000 Ruidoso Futurity on Sunday. Racing runs Friday through Monday with a 1 p.m. fi rst post time. There is always free parking and free general admission at Ruidoso Downs.

Pull-outsection


Gary Thompson’s homebred Vernissage, second in the Copper Top Futurity Colt an Gelding Division, returns to head the three trials to the $167,000 Moun-tain Top Thoroughbred Futurity on Friday afternoon at Ruidoso Downs.

The fi ve-furlong trials will run as the sixth through the eighth races on the nine-race card. The top-three fi nishers in each trial will be joined by a fourth-place horse who wins a shake (a blind draw) in the 10-horse futurity for New Mexico-breds.

Vernissage is still a maiden, yet has already proven himself with a very close second in his Cop-per Top trial and then making a late surge to gain second in the Copper Top Futurity, beaten by three quarters of a length.

Trainer Bart Hone has named Miguel Hernandez to ride Vernissage with the second post position.

Vernissage will be challenged by Solitaire Stables’ Devilish Beast in the fi rst trial. The Henry Dominguez-trained colt comes off an impressive fi ve-length maiden win over the Ruidoso Downs track.

Enrique Gomez rides Devilish Beast with the fi fth post position.

The second trial is wide open with FM Forty One the probable choice. The Todd Fincher-trained geld-ing won a maiden race at Sunland Park in his only start.

Alfredo Juarez Jr. will be aboard FM Forty One with the seventh post position.

The third trial brings out Copper Top Futurity Colts and Geldings Division qualifi er Beaumont Time against maiden winner Zesty Salsa.

Anna Crowson and Tony Sedillo’s Beaumont Time has three starts, with no wins and his futurity qualifi cation for trainer Richard Sedillo.

Reliance Ranches’ Zesty Salsa was a two-length maiden winner in his only start for trainer Todd Fincher.

Beaumont Time has the ninth post position with Larry Gamez up while Zesty Salsa drew the three hole and will have Casey Lambert aboard.

Highlighting this racing weekend at Ru-idoso Downs will be the $822,000 Ruidoso Derby on Saturday and the $750,000 Ruidoso Futu-rity on Sunday, each with all-time record purses.

Racing runs on a Friday through Monday sched-ule at Ruidoso Downs with a 1 p.m. fi rst post time. There is always free parking and free general admis-sion.

Vernissage heads three trials to Mountain Top Futurity

Part of the fun of watching trials is handicapping the races, looking for what are known as “angles” that other handicappers might miss. Along these lines, here are three basic rules of thumb to consider when ana-lyzing 2-year-old trial races this time of year:1. When looking at a horse’s workouts,

give extra weight to its performance in training races, which give us a better idea of how a horse fares under actual racing conditions. Training races for 2-year-olds were held at Ruidoso Downs from May 6-8, at Remington Park in Oklahoma City in February and March, and at Retama Park in Texas in February.

2. Consider a trainer’s record with 2-year-old starters. This information, including starts and winning percentage, can be found in most past per-formance products, including TrackMaster and Daily Racing Form.

3. When looking at horses that have had previous starts, consider the competition they’ve run against. For example, if they’re coming out of a maiden or trial win, did any of the horses they beat come back and win their next out? TrackMaster Quarter Horse past performances in-clude class ratings which make it easier for handicappers to gauge the level of competition horses have faced in previous races, though these class ratings are more accurate with 3-year-olds, as most 2-year-olds haven’t established class form this time of year.

There are two basic types of horse-racing bets - straight bets and exotic bets. The first article in this series, Five easy steps to place your first horse racing bet introduced straight bets including WIN, PLACE and SHOW. This article intro-duces the reader to EXOTIC bets which fall into two very distinct categories – single-race bets and multi-race bets. This week’s article covers the single-race bets: Exactas, Quinellas, Trifectas and Superfectas. These exotic bets allow for multi-horse wagering on individual (single) races.• Exacta:The simplest single-race exotic bet, the Exacta

requires the bettor to predict the winning horse and the second-place horse, ‘exactly’ in order. The Exacta bet will pay more than betting either of the horses individu-ally to win or place.

• Quinella:Similar to the Exacta, but the Quinella does not require the bettor to predict the order of the first two horses. The bettor has to predict the horses which will finish in the top two places, but does not have to pre-dict which of those two will actually win the race. The Quinella is easier to predict than an Exacta, and also pays less than the Exacta, generally about half of the Exacta payout.

• Trifecta:The Trifecta is similar to the Exacta but takes it a step further. It requires the bettor to predict the horses that finish in the top 3 positions in the race in order.

Much harder to predict than an Exacta, and will pay out much more.

• Superfecta:The most difficult of the single-race exotics, the Superfecta, requires the bettor to predict the first four finishers, in order. Picking a winning Superfecta is dif-ficult but very profitable.Players who specialize in exotic wagers generally take

different combinations of horses rather than a ‘straight’ bet of only one combination. Choosing several possible com-binations of horses increases the chances of winning. For example, a ‘boxed’ wager allows you to take every possible combination of a set of horses.

If you a ‘key’ a horse, you are taking the horse to win and then take several horses in combination to finish second, third, etc. The bettor can also pick individual horses and then ‘wheel’ the remaining horses. An example – if you like the #1 horse to win but want to bet an Exacta – bet “1/ALL” where you pick the #1 horse to win and any (ALL) of the remaining horses in the race to finish second.

Exactas, Quinellas, Trifectas and Superfectas are now available on almost every race at most major simulcast tracks. Exotic wagering offers the serious race horse handicapper the potential for large and even life-changing payouts, and now accounts for nearly 65 percent of all money wagered on horse racing.

Operation School Bell provides clothes and school supplies to 500-plus children each fall. With more than 75 percent of children in Carlsbad/Loving qualifying for free lunches, the need is large. They have served their community for more than 40 years. Accepting the gift of $3,000 was Judith Welton.

The Boys & Girls Club of Carlsbad has been serving the Carlsbad area for more than 40 years.

Accepting the award rep-resenting their $8,000 grant was Francine Attibraugh and Brandy Martin.

The Carlsbad Battered Family Shelter is very dedicated in trying to end the vicious cycle of domestic violence.

Accepting the award representing their $2,500 grant was Janet Ellis and Eric Threlkeld.

Accepting the award representing their grant of $4,000 was Kathy Cox.Southeast New Mexico Community Ac-tions Corporation provides a multitude of services throughout Southeastern New Mexico. This year, their focus was the pur-chase of disposable trays for their Senior Citizens Home Delivered Meals Program, making it easier for their volunteers to create and deliver meals to area seniors.

Accepting the award representing their grant of $2,500 was Sherra Hester.Unable to attend, The Carlsbad Commu-nity Kitchen is a true servant to the com-munity.
