Jackson Davis 747 wins 2025 TPHBA Juvenile

A late surge from Jackson Davis 747 helped the gelding overcome a rocky start and win the TPHBA Juvenile on September 25, 2025, at Lone Star Park in Grand Prairie, Texas.

Ridden by Eliazar Vera, Jackson Davis 747 rallied over rivals like second-place finisher Fourcrossnews and third-place Mrs Pyc Painted Nova. He crossed the wire in 16.809 seconds. The winner was trained by Manuel Roman.

The 2023 gray solid gelding has rattled off three consecutive stakes wins; previously, he captured victories in the TPHBA Juvenile Stakes and the Alamo Paint & Appaloosa Futurity. Jackson Davis 747—who is by Chilitos and out of Shes A Cartel Girl (QH)—was bred by Courtney Watson of Seguine, Texas. Val and Tonya Gonzalez own the gelding.

The race featured a $10,950 purse; the winner received $6,459 for the victory. That boosts the gelding’s lifetime earnings in excess of $46,000.
