Vekoma Gets First Winner With Fortuna Mia At Horseshoe Indy

[Wandering Eyes]

Freshman stallion Vekoma (Candy Ride {Arg}) notched his first winner Monday when Fortuna Mia won nicely at Horseshoe Indianapolis. Off at 5-1, the 2-year-old filly stalked the pacesetter, pounced off the turn, won going away and survived an objection to win at first asking for owner/trainer Rey Hernandez. Vekoma, who stands at Spendthrift Farm for $15,000, finished his career on a three-race win streak, taking the Sir Shackleton S. at Gulfstream and the GI Runhappy Carter H. at Belmont before retiring after a win in the GI Runhappy Metropolitan H. with a record of 8-6-0-1 and earnings of $1,245,525.
