Don Fowler Memorial headlines Sunday Cal Expo card
At 0h20, on March 26, 2023 • By CAL EXPO
Firenado, who has been taking on the razor-sharp Officer Jim; and Chase The Gold, fresh from a sparkling victory, head Sunday night’s (March 26) $12,500 Don Fowler Memorial Pace at Cal Expo. The Fowler will highlight a 13-race card presented by Watch and Wager LLC, and first post is set for 7:55 p.m.
Firenado, owned and trained by Kelly Crump, comes into this assignment having captured 10 of his 48 trips to the post. The 5-year-old son of Mystician is coming off three straight third-place finishes while chasing home the streaking Officer Jim at the Open level, and he figures to be very much at home in this Diamond Horse Alliance contest.
Chase The Gold has gone may big miles over this layout, and is gunning for back-to-back scores on Sunday for owner QKS Racing, trainer Quentin Schneider and driver Mooney Svendsen. The 5-year-old son of Mystery Chase has made 16 trips to the winner’s circle from his 48 appearances and set his lifetime mark of 1:51 over this track last season.
Allmyx’sliventexas is the richest member of the cast with his $319,000 bank account and the fastest with his 1:50 standard that was set five years ago at Harrah’s Hoosier Park. The homebred carries the banner of Wayne Knittel and is conditioned by Bob Johnson.
Completing the field are Chase The Gold’s stablemate Captain Terminator, and Mystery Dragon from the Rick Bertrand barn.
