Fincher juveniles top Kendrick Memorial

SunRay Park in Farmington, N.M. has three 2-year-old stakes Sunday, with the $55,000 C.O. Ken Kendrick Memorial drawing a promising pair from trainer Todd Fincher.

The 4 1/2-furlong race drew a field of six first-time starters. The race is restricted to 2-year-olds bred in New Mexico.

Fincher trainees Bye Bye Matty P and the filly Roll On Camron are by stallions who are getting 20 percent juvenile debut winners. Bye Bye Matty P’s dam was a winner at 2 and has produced a multiple stakes winner in Plea Agreement.
