BC-bred two-year-old gelding Finally Gottcha ran a confident, stalking type of race to break his maiden in his second lifetime start while going 6 1/2 furlongs around a fast Hastings Racecourse. Rider Ruben Lara hustled Finally Gottcha into position to the outside of pacesetter, Arranger, passed him on the far turn, then galloped home strongly to easily hold off a late running Day Flyer and win by 2 3/4 lengths. This fine Maiden Special Weight winner is owned and trained by his breeder, Clint Willson. Clint will receive bonuses of $5,000 for breeding and $5,000 for owning this maiden 2-year-old winner. Finally Gottcha is by Gottcha Gold and is out of the Finality mare, Finally Flying. Finally Flying finished second in the Assiniboia Oaks and won multiple Allowance races at the Winnipeg race track. Look for her son, Finally Gottcha, to make some noise as a three year old.
