GLORIETTE PICKS UP HER SEVENTH LIFETIME VICTORY IN FEATURED REMINGTON PARK ALLOWANCE

For Immediate Release
Saturday, Oct. 3, 2026

Jockey Ramon Vazquez guided Gloriette to her seventh win lifetime in the featured allowance race on Saturday night at Remington Park.

Vazquez knew he had the best early speed horse and the rail, so he booted the mare out of the gate in a hurry to put her where she likes it best, on the front end. The 5-year-old Kentucky-bred mare by Munnings, out of the Successful Appeal dam Julerette, took advantage of that early foot and never looked back, making every pole a winning one in the 6-1/2 furlongs sprint on the main fast track. It was her seventh win in 32 career races.

Gloriette was sent off as the 2-1 wagering favorite in the field of seven which were running under allowance conditions of non-winners of a race since June 3 or non-winners of four races lifetime. The winning mare, trained by Shea Stuart and owned by Falcon Thoroughbreds of Council Bluffs, Iowa, paid $6.60 to win, $3.60 to place and $3.20 to show.

It was the first race at Remington Park for Gloriette, but she got to race at a distance she loves – 6-1/2 furlongs. Gloriette has now won two-of-four at that distance. She earned $25,068 from the $42,000 allowance purse. Her record improved to 32 starts, seven wins,, four seconds and six thirds for a bankroll of $460,165. She was, by far, the top money earner in this field. No other horse had reached the $200,000 mark. The winner was bred by Mike and Katherine Ball.

Gloriette’s winning time was 1:17.75 and she set interior fractions of :21.94 for the first quarter-mile, :45.13 for the half-mile, and 1:10.84 for three-quarters of a mile. The mare finished 2-3/4 lengths in front of second-place Electrifying Lady (5-1), who was another two lengths ahead of Naval Woman (3-1) in third. The win was the 21st of the meet for Vazquez, who sits solidly in third place in the jockeys’ standings behind top riders David Cabrera (32 wins) and Erik Asmussen (32). Both Cabrera and Asmussen won a pair of races on Saturday night’s card.

Remington Park racing continues Oct. 8-10, Thursday, through Saturday, with the first race nightly at 6:30pm-Central.
