Fullback

September 8, 2022

“We purchased Fullback after the 2015 Retired Racehorse Project TB Makeover. I trained him for his third career as a Foxhunter.

The only way to get somewhere fast with a horse is to go slow. Foxhunting is exciting and fast paced and it's hard to get their brains to slow down once you speed it up. We spent two seasons in third field before moving up to second and then to first. I still use the other fields on a regular basis so that he doesn't think it's always exciting. It's only exciting when I want it to be.

Fun fact about Fullback: he is bred to be racing royalty. He was bred by Darley and is by Preakness winner Bernardini. Bernardini won over $3 million on the track. He's out of multiple grade one winner Stellar Jayne, who won over $1.5 million on the track”.
