Post positions were drawn today for this weekend’s major stakes events at Ruidoso Downs including the $3 million All American Futurity, the $1.2 million All American Derby and the $715,000 All American Oaks.

Two-year-old undefeated filly Dark NME, winner of the $1 million Rainbow Futurity and Remington Park’s $800,000 Oklahoma Breeder’s Futurity, has been made an even-money favorite to win the All American Futurity on Monday, September 4th. The filly will start in post position number-two and be ridden by jockey Francisco Calderon.

Dark NME remains undefeated in six career starts for owner Willie Garcia and trainer Santos Carrizales Jr. The filly broke the track record in winning the 400-yard Rainbow Futurity on July 16 in a time of 19.028 seconds.
