Billie Jack Saebens rode Una Furiosa, a 2021 gray mare bred by Flag Ranch and owned by Shane Boston, to the win in the Pre-Futurity Heading at the ARHFA Oil Can Classic. The pair posted a 912.18 on four head to collect $6,080.
By Bobby Starlight and out of Playin For Fury, Una Furiosa joined Saebens’ program as a 2-year-old after he first laid eyes on Una Furiosa in the catalog of the Triangle Sale two years ago. He knew she had “the look”—uphill build, low-set hocks and a presence. Purchased alongside a few other prospects by Shane Boston, Una Furiosa was started by Ty Benson before landing in Saebens’ program in late summer of her 2-year-old year.
After a reserve finish at the Scottsdale Sun Circuit earlier this year, she carried that momentum to Ardmore, winning the short round with a 229.71 and securing the average by nearly two points.
