TRAINER SHAWNA MANRIQUEZ WINS HER SECOND OAKS OF MEET, THIS TIME WITH MRS KVN AT 31-1 ODDS IN HERITAGE PLACE OAKS
OKLAHOMA CITY, OK – June 4, 2023 – If the race is called the Oaks at Remington Park, one had better not ignore trainer Shawna Manriquez and her entry in the race. Mrs KVN proved that Saturday, pulling off the surprise at 31-1 odds in the $270,300 Heritage Place Oaks.
Earlier in the meet Manriquez won the Remington Park Oaks with Ko
ol N Foxy. That was no surprise, however, as Kool N Foxy was the 3-1 morning line favorite in that event for Oklahoma-bred in April.
Mrs KVN turned the world on its ear, coming out of nowhere to win as a totally ignored horse on the toteboard. The 3-year-old filly by KVN Corona, out of the First Down Dash mare Little Surfer, flashed to the wire in the 400-yard race to get up by a head over another longshot, R Ladys Dynasty (14-1). That $2 exacta was worth $946. She also keyed a 50-cent Pick 3 payout of $4,347.60 with two other horses that were at 9-2 and 11-1 odds.
