KITTY CODE SHOWS BLOODLINES RUN TRUE, WINNING OKC TURF CLASSIC HANDICAP AT REMINGTON PARK
For Immediate Release
Friday, Oct. 16, 2026
by Richard Linihan
OKLAHOMA CITY – Kitty Code looked a lot like his maternal grandsire, Kitten’s Joy, on Friday night, winning the $99,600 OKC Turf Classic Handicap at 28-1 at Remington Park. Jockey Walter De La Cruz was up for the score.
Kitten’s Joy is generally recognized as the greatest North American turf sire of all-time, producing millionaire after millionaire runners on the grass. If that weren’t enough, he also was a graded stakes winner and the American Champion Turf Horse of 2004. All that seemed to kick in for Kitty Code on Friday night as he came from dead last in the seven-horse field to pass them all down the stretch for.
The win gave owner-breeder Bryan Hawk and trainer Joe Offolter a sweep of the late daily double, winning the Classics Cup and the OKC Turf. Mister Omaha won the Cup as was expected, but Kitty Code’s upset was not. De La Cruz got Kitty Code up by a neck as the two heavy favorites were licking at his heels. Country Caper (7-5 odds) ran second, just missing the win, and Eakly (even-money favorite) was third, another two lengths behind at the finish of the 1-1/16th mile race greensward for 3-year-olds-and-older Oklahoma-breds.
Kitty Code paid $58.60 to win, $23.80 to place and $5.80 to show. His victory keyed some gigantic payoffs in the final race of the night. It caused the largest payout of the season for the Pick 5 bettors, returning $25,223.20 to three tickets. It also produced a $1,105.90 return for the late Pick 4. In the Pick 5, those three lucky tickets had the following horses (race 6 – So Jacksann, 26-1; race 7 – Miss Code West, 1-9; race 8 – Connors Outlaw, 22-1; race 9 – Mister Omaha, 4-5; and race 10 – Kitty Code, 28-1).
“The last couple of times out, I really thought we had a chance to win those races,” said Offolter. “I just told Walter there were some speed horses in there to chase and give it one big run.”
Hawk thought the race set up well for his horse, too.
“I saw the speed (horses) going and our guy is a closer and there at the end, I said, ‘He’s going! He’s going! And he went!”
The fourth-place finisher, Stoney Brick Road (8-1) set the early pace in :24.31 for the first quarter-mile and :49.90 for the half-mile before Eakly passed him to take the lead, going 1:14.59 for three-quarters of a mile and 1:39.45 for a mile before the winner hit the wire in 1:45.45. That was the only time that Kitty Code had the lead, when he finished a neck in front.
Kitty Code is a 4-year-old gelded son of Code West, out of the Kitten’s Joy mare Blushing Kitten. He earned $59,760 to push his overall bankroll to $111.593. He has now started 12 times with three wins and two third-place efforts to his credit.
The rest of the order of finish past the top four was C W Prize (9-1) fifth, Good Swimmer (28-1) sixth and Excaping the Blues (10-1) seventh.
The win by Offolter propelled him into third all-time wins in the Classics for trainers with 12. He passed the late Roger Engel (11) and Steve Hobby (10) to move into that position. He now trails Donnie Von Hemel (32) and C.R. Trout (18). It had been 15 years since Offolter had won the OKC Turf Classic. He teamed up with jockey Luis Quinonez in 2011 to win this race with Capture the Flag. It was his only other win in this series. It was the first win in the OKC Turf for De La Cruz and Hawk.
Remington Park racing continues Saturday, Oct. 17 with the first post at 6:30pm-Central.

CONNORS OUTLAW PULLS OFF MAJOR UPSET AT 22-1 ODDS IN OKLAHOMA CLASSICS SPRINT AT REMINGTON PARK
For Immediate Release
Friday, Oct. 16, 2026
by Richard Linihan
OKLAHOMA CITY – Connors Outlaw produced one of the biggest upsets on the 34th Oklahoma Classics Night at Remington Park. The 6-year-old gelding weaved his way through traffic in the stretch to give trainer Mike Abney his second win on the program, taking the $99,600 Oklahoma Classics Sprint.
Jockey Rene Diaz looked like a man in 5 o’clock rush hour traffic trying to be the first one home as he pulled Connors Outlaw left and right, passing horses like they were standing still. There was little room to spare as Diaz booted home the 22-1 longshot, finally bursting to the finish line 1-1/4 lengths ahead of the field.
The Oklahoma-bred gelding by Cinco Charlie, out of the Grand Slam mare Le Grand Fromage, was claimed for $30,000 two races back in an allowance event at Remington Park on Aug. 27. The new owners Larry Foos and Troy Cartmill, had to be scratching their noggins after they laid out that kind of money for a horse they watched finish seventh that night, beaten 16-1/2 lengths. But Abney never lost faith.
“I really did expect this (winning the Classics Sprint); I don’t mean to sound arrogant,” Abney said. “We knew what we had and we were thinking Oklahoma Classics when we claimed him. I guess we’re not as dumb as everyone thinks we are.”
Connors Outlaw had not won a race since Sept. 27 last year when he beat starter allowance company at Remington Park. His only stakes win came at Will Rogers Downs in Claremore, Okla., on March 26, 2024.
It was a cavalry charge to the wire and Diaz had the best and quickest GPS on this night to get up for the upset win. Connors Outlaw paid $47.60 to win, $18.20 to place and $6.40 to show. Another outsider, Easy as Pie (7-1) ran second, Cajun Stoops (11-1) was third and Guapo (7-2) was fourth. That 10-cent superfecta wager paid a whopping $1,349.36.
The 8-5 favorite, Breakable Code (last year’s winner of this race) could only manage a fifth-place effort. Following him were Mi Saturday (10-1) sixth, How About Bob (13-1) seventh, Slades Tank (20-1) eighth, Lil Elvis (22-1) ninth, Legacy Account (12-1) 10th and Missin Hollywood (9-1) 11th.
It was a strange race for Connors Outlaw from start to finish, going six furlongs on the main track. He was third at first call (:22.05 the first quarter-mile), fifth after a half-mile (:45.41) and then had the lead at the top of the stretch as he made his way through a maze of contenders. At that point he had covered five furlongs in :57.89 before winning in 1:10.69 over the fast surface.
Connors Outlaw earned $59,760 from the purse and improved to 33 starts, 10 wins, with five seconds and five thirds. He now has earned $353,865.
Remington Park racing continues Saturday, Oct. 17 with a first post time of 6:30pm-Central.

SO JACKSANN INHERITS WIN IN OKLAHOMA CLASSICS DISTAFF SPRINT AFTER HEAVY FAVORITE, LETTA’S LEGACY, IS DISQUALIFIED TO THIRD
For Immediate Release
Friday, October 16, 2026
by Richard Linihan
OKLAHOMA CITY – Letta’s Legacy was sent off at 1-5 odds as the strong favorite in the $99,600 Oklahoma Classics Distaff Sprint and crossed the finish line first. However, she was disqualified for interference and So Jacksann benefitted, elevated from second to victory at 26-1 odds.
The stewards determined that Letta’s Legacy moved in front of the third-place finisher Lanaluah (22-1) in the stretch at about the 16th-pole without clearance, causing the latter horse to take up. Lanaluah was placed second after the disqualification and Letta’s Legacy was placed third.
It would have been jockey David Cabrera’s fourth win of the night and second Oklahoma Classics stakes win, but unfortunately for him, he was aboard the heavy favorite who was taken down from victory. So Jacksann and jockey Ernesto Valdez-Jiminez gladly moved into the winner’s circle to have their picture taken as those from the barn of C.R. Trout, trainer of Letta’s Legacy, could merely watch and dejectedly take their DQ’d winner back to her barn.
Letta’s Legacy had crossed the finish line in the six-furlong race on the dirt as a 2-1/2 length winner, giving her yet another win in her long line of victories here. But it was not to be on this night.
When So Jacksann was put up as the new winner, the 6-year-old Oklahoma-bred mare by Wilburn, from the Afleet Alex mare So What, lit up the toteboard. She paid $55.40 to win, $26.20 to place and $7.60 to show to her backers. The winning time of the race was 1:10.91. Letta’s Legacy was one length to the good over her pursuers at the top of the lane, but she couldn’t keep a straight line.
Scott Corderman was the new winning trainer after the DQ for his owner C. Dale Ledgess of Davis, Okla. So Jacksann was bred by her owner. She pocketed $59,760 for the win and improved her record to 23-7-4-4, $205,609.
After the DQ, past the top three in finish order were So Jordan (5-1) fourth, Raspberry Martini (51-1) fifth, Flat Out Kelce (11-1) sixth, Cyndi Loper (6-1) seventh and Angel Kiss (31-1) eighth.
Remington Park racing continues Saturday, Oct. 17 with the first race at 6:30pm-Central.

MISTER OMAHA RETURNS TO HIS TOP FORM, WINNING OKLAHOMA CLASSICS CUP UNDER JOCKEY LUIS QUINONEZ AT REMINGTON PARK
For Immediate Release
Friday, October 16, 2026
by Richard Linihan
OKLAHOMA CITY – Mister Omaha hadn’t run since June 27 and when he did, he finished sixth, beaten 10 lengths in Texas over the turf.
That poor showing didn’t matter Friday night at Remington Park as this 4-year-old Oklahoma-bred colt returned to the dirt and fired fresh off the layoff, leaving the competition in his dust in the $131,000 Oklahoma Classics Cup at 1-1/16th miles on the main track.
A son of Omaha Beach, out of the Into Mischief mare Cosmic Code, went straight to the lead out of the gate and was two lengths ahead of everyone before they could blink an eye. Under veteran rider Luis Quinonez, who is the second all-time leading jockey at Remington Park behind Cliff Berry, Mister Omaha gave everything he had and widened that margin to five lengths turning for home. He held on, at 4-5 odds, to win by 4-1/2 lengths in a time of 1:42.82 on the fast surface.
It was the third win on Oklahoma Classics Night for Mister Omaha, who also won the Juvenile as a 2-year-old in 2024 and the 2025 Classics Cup. He won for the 10th time in his career from 18 tries and improved his record to 18-10-1-2, $509,083 in earnings.
The Classics Cup was his third stakes win in a row for Mister Omaha at Remington Park, going back to wins in the $50,000 Jim Thorpe Handicap last year on Dec. 20 that followed his win in the Oklahoma Classics Cup on Oct. 17, 2025. You have to go back to the Grade 3, $400,000 Oklahoma Derby to find a stakes loss here when he ran third, behind Bracket Buster and Iron Dome a year ago.
“This horse is my favorite,” said Quinonez, who won a Classics race for the 25th time, putting him only one win behind Berry’s 26. “The first time I got on him, I told (trainer) Joe (Offolter) that I love this horse.”
Halfway through the race Friday, Quinonez looked behind himself to see if anything was coming.
“I just didn’t want any surprises,” he said with a laugh.
No worries. Mister Omaha won easily, if not as easily as last year when he drew away by a remarkable 9-3/4 lengths.
Offolter, a member of the Oklahoma Horse Racing Hall of Fame, swept the final two races on the card – the Cup with Mister Omaha and the Oklahoma Classics Turf Handicap with 28-1 longshot Kitty Code. That gave Offolter 12 Classics victories for his resume that shot him past the late Roger Engel (11) and Steve Hobby (10) into third place all-time. He now sits behind Donnie Von Hemel (32) and C.R. Trout (18).
“We couldn’t get what we needed for him this fall, so we waited to get him right and he was training good,” said Offolter. “Luis worked him a good seven furlongs and we were just hoping we had him fit enough for this.”
Mister Omaha put $78,600 into owner Bryan Hawk’s pockets with his second consecutive trip to the Classics Cup winner’s circle, giving Hawk two wins as an owner on Friday and three as a breeder.
The winner’s internal fractions for the race were :23.72 for the first quarter-mile, :47.32 for the half-mile, 1:11.50 for six furlongs and 1:36.30 for the mile. In the category of someone-had-to-finish-second, Winters Lion (17-1) got up for that placing, a half-length ahead of Classy Empire (6-5) in third. The rest of the order of finish was Number One Dude (12-1) fourth, Inca Empire (43-1) fifth and Nucleus (5-1) sixth.
Mister Omaha paid $3.80 to win, $2.60 to place and $2.10 to show. He was bred by his owner.
“Joe and Luis and all the team had him ready,” said Hawk. “You know, you never know if they are going to be tight and ready. He’s amazing.”
Remington Park continues Saturday, Oct. 16 with the first post time at 6:30pm-Central.

KILLA SALLY PULLS OFF UPSET, WINNING OKLAHOMA CLASSICS DISTAFF TURF AT REMINGTON PARK
For Immediate Release
Friday, October 16, 2026
by Richard Linihan
OKLAHOMA CITY – Killa Sally finally got the clean trip she had been begging for the whole meet and she took every advantage, winning the $99,600 Oklahoma Classics Distaff Turf at 10-1 odds.
“We had some bad luck her first time out (here),” said trainer Justin Evans. “Then we had a troubled trip the next time, but tonight she showed up with the clean trip and showed what she can do.”
What she can do helped Evans do what he hasn’t done before – win a stakes race at Remington Park and win an Oklahoma Classics race. This is the first year that Evans has brought a string of horses to run full-time at this Oklahoma City track.
It was jockey David Cabrera’s third win on the night and his first trip to the winner’s circle in the Distaff Turf series. It improved Cabrera’s impressive Classics wins total to 13, just one behind Oklahoma Horse Racing Hall of Fame rider Tim Doocy (14) for fifth place. Cliff Berry, the all-time winningest jockey in Remington Park history, holds the record for most Oklahoma Classics victories with 26.
“Honestly, I was very comfortable where I had her positioned; just the way I wanted,” Cabrera said. “We turned for home and everything was just perfect.”
Killa Sally came from dead last in the field of seven Oklahoma-bred fillies and mares to pass them all by the time she hit the finish line in the 1-1/16th miles race over the yielding turf course. Floras Ora (9-2) set a lively pace early, setting it up for Killa Sally’s late charge to the wire before the former faded to last place. Killa Sally won by a half-length, out-dueling 4-5 favorite Talkin Cadee to the finish.
Killa Sally, a 3-year-old daughter of Volatile, out of the Flower Alley mare Sallyport, paid $23.20 to win, $5.80 to place and $3 to show.
The winner earned $59,760 for owner David A. Bernsen and Shamrock Stables of Las Vegas and improved to 12 starts, three wins, four seconds and two thirds for a lifetime total of $173,445. Killa Sally was bred by Matthew Cody McCart and David Matthew Wilkett and was purchased for $45,000 from the Fasig-Tipton Kentucky Fall Yearling Sale of 2024.
Running time for Killa Sally was 1:45.02 over the yielding turf course. She took advantage of early fractions of :23.78 for the first quarter-mile, :47.92 for the half-mile, 1:12.68 for three-quarters of a mile and 1:38.65 for the mile.
Talkin Cadee was one length ahead of third-place finisher Doudoudouwanadance (5-2). The rest of the order of finish past the top three was Inca Code (24-1) fourth, Gospel Clarity (17-1) fifth, Code of the South (12-1) sixth and Floras Ora seventh. Cryptic Miss and Maybe Dolcie were both scratched from the race.
Remington Park racing continues Saturday, Oct. 16 with the first post at 6:30pm-Central.
