The great Crook County and Central Oregon tradition — the Crooked River Roundup Race Meet — brought horse racing action back to Prineville last week, with racing at the fairgrounds July 9-12.

Kicking off with Ladies Night on July 9 and culminating with biggest purses of the meet on Saturday night, the races pulled in a four-day attendance of 21,250 with $309,867 wagered.

In the showcase race of the meet, Saturday night’s Rhoden Memorial, Bv Mary Rose won the 250-yard sprint finishing in 13.086. The horse, ridden by Jose Elias Rodriguez, came on late to get the win. Warlock also drove late to finish second in 13.091. The Prize Ferarri was leading but was caught at the end and finished third in 13.119. The race, fifth on the night, carried a meet-topping purse of $19,500.

The Woodward Memorial followed the Rhoden Memorial and had a purse of $14,200. Run Snappy won the 5.5 furlong event, with the meet’s top jockey Rodriguez aboard. In the No. 7 race, the Art Smith  Memorial, Macchiato d’Oro controlled the race and got the win over the seven furlong battle. The Art Smith Memorial carried a purse of $10,600.
