Hurricane Bluff Blows Away Rivals in Friday Feature

NEW ORLEANS (Friday, March 23, 2012) – Chad White’s Hurricane Bluff, away alertly and quickly in command, made the pace throughout in Friday’s $41,000 allowance and $30,000 optional claiming sprint for accredited Louisiana-bred sophomores and proved 2 1/2-lengths the best at the wire.

The winner, trained by Frank Trosclair and ridden by Shane Sellers, toured the six furlongs in 1:10.12 after setting early fractions of 21.65 and 45.17, increased his career earnings to $54,060 with his second win in three lifetime starts and returned mutuels of $10.20, $5.20 and $3.80.
