Lord Shogun broke strongly out of the gate from the widest post of a field of 11 and led every step of the way in winning the $100,000 Alberta Derby (Can-G3) on Saturday at Stampede Park.

A son of Maudlin, Lord Shogun set fractions of :23, :47.40, 1:12.80, and 1:39.20 under jockey David Wilson before hitting the wire in 1:46.20 in the 1 1/16-mile race, which is the Calgary track's showcase event for three-year-olds.

Regal Rebel followed 2 3/4 lengths behind in second, with another 2 1/4-lengths back to Silent Shoes in third. Intact, the 1.90-to-favorite, finished last.

Lord Shogun entered the race off of an allowance win at Hastings Park on May 12 in his three-year-old debut. He improved his career record to three wins and two seconds in six starts for trainer Robert Van Overschot and has earned $96,027 for owner-breeder Canyon Farms.

Bred in British Columbia, Lord Shogun is the only winner from three foals to race produced by the winning Golden Reserve mare Aero Duchess.
