Saturday, May 18, 2024:
A huge congratulations to MY RACEHORSE’s SEIZE THE GREY (’21 Arrogate / Smart Shopping) who splashed through the Pimlico mud to win the 149th PREAKNESS STAKES (G1) Saturday. A Winning effort in the Pat Day Mile (G2) on Derby Day proved to be an excellent prep for the second jewel of the Triple Crown. Hall of Fame conditioner D. WAYNE LUCAS was confident that the colt could not only get the 1 3/16 but get to the winner’s circle at Old Hill Top. Talented young jockey JAMIE TORRES, who piloted SEIZE THE GREY on Derby Day, was back aboard this past weekend and once again the jockey / colt combination was a winning one.
A $300,000 purchase by MY RACEHORSE out of the 2022 Fasig-Tipton Saratoga Sale, the colt has made 10 career starts, half of them in Graded Stakes, collecting four wins (2 graded) and three third place finishes (1 black type). SEIZE THE GREY has earned over six times his purchase price with earnings of over $1.8 million.
We are so proud of SEIZE THE GREY and could not be happier for all of his connections. We wish them all the very best in the future!
