Feature Hero picked the perfect day to run the race of his life at Ruidoso Downs on Sunday.
The 3-year-old gelding ran a flawless 440 yards to win the $2,809,784 All American Derby, the richest race in Quarter Horse history. Ridden by Jimmy Brooks for trainer Eddie Willis, Feature Hero ($49.80) edged the fastest qualifier, Bon Accord, to win by a neck.
Point Break Dash was third in the field of 10, a length behind Feature Hero.
