Its Just Fate, Entrusted eye second stakes wins

Its Just Fate and Entrusted will each be looking for a second stakes win at the Indiana Grand meet Saturday night when the 3-year-olds run in separate $75,000 divisions of the ITOBA Stallion Season Stakes.

The races are both at a mile and are for the offspring of eligible stallions.

Its Just Fate became a stakes winner in his last start when he won the $104,000 Sagamore Sired Stakes by four lengths May 23 at Indiana. He set a quick pace and went on to cover six furlongs in a sharp 1:10.83. The Beyer Speed Figure of 60 that he earned is the best last-race number in the ITOBA Stallion Season.

Its Just Fate will be making the move to two turns for the first time and looks like the race’s controlling speed. He is by the Sky Mesa stallion Skylord. Rodney Prescott has the mount for trainer Wayne Mogge.

Entrusted is part of an eight-horse field for the ITOBA Stallion Season Fillies. She won the $104,000 Swifty Sired Fillies in her last start May 23 at Indiana. She was always prominent in the six-furlong race run in 1:10.82, and for her 3 1/4-length win earned a Beyer Speed Figure of 60, which is the best career number in her division Saturday.

Entrusted is by the Cuvee stallion Noble’s Promise. Marcelino Pedroza has the mount for trainer Michael Lauer.
