(Saturday, October 13, 2007) - Tim Lange and Charlie Forbes' Illegal Memories, ridden by Roy Baldillez and trained by Doug McMullen, clocked 400 yards in :19.889 Saturday night at Lone Star Park and was the fastest qualifier to the Grade 1 Dash For Cash Futurity, scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 27.

Thirteen trial races were staged for 2-year-old American Quarter Horses and the 10 fastest of 125 recorded times earned berths in the $432,090 final two weeks later.

In addition to Illegal Memories, who prevailed in the fifth trial, the finalists are All American Futurity seventh Coronas Fast Dash (:19.945, Race 7, ridden by Juan Vazquez, trained by John Buchanan); Oklahoma Horsemen's Association Futurity fifth Adios My Amigos (:19.984, Race 12, Roy Brooks, Luis Villafranco); Heritage Place Futurity qualifier Passion Raging On (:20.066, Race 5, Larry Payne, Eddie Willis); Oklahoma Horsemen's Association Futurity third Presidential Request (:20.087, Race 4, G.R. Carter Jr., Brian Muse); Speedhorse Gold and Silver Cup Futurity winner Furrtreeous (:20.096, Race 13, Brooks, Villafranco); Blue Ribbon Futurity runner-up Illegal Te (:20.104, Race 5, Rodrigo Vallejo, Judd Kearl); Rainbow Futurity runner-up Possum Fust (:20.111, Race 9, Payne, Willis); West Texas Futurity qualifier Rock Solid Jess (:20.111, Race 13, James Gonzales, Mike Wakefield); and Retama Park and Dixie Stallion Futurity third Witchs Streak (:20.112, Race 4, Santos Carrizales, Jose Ramos).

Illegal Memories, a Texas-bred gelded son of Illegal Runaway out of the Leaving Memories mare Good Ole Memories, will enter the final with two wins and $80,372 in six career starts.

In three of those starts, including Saturday's impressive trial victory, he's propped or jumped the photo finish light beam at the wire. He did the same while fourth in the Grade 1 Retama Park Futurity in June.

In the trial for the Retama Park Futurity, Illegal Memories nearly sent two-time reigning Lone Star Park riding champ "Diamond" Jim Brooks into retirement. The 56-year-old jockey was sidelined four months with an injured rotator cuff when the 2-year-old bobbled badly at the wire while finishing second.

"At the wire, he got stiff-legged and just propped and dug his two front feet into the ground," Brooks said Oct. 2. "He tossed me out of the stirrups and into the air with no reins in my hands; I came down hard. He's got some talent, though."
