100th Saratoga Sale yields Arrogate colt

By | Kiawah, Latest News

A yearling sale can be a bit of a marathon and a bit of a dance, but having a game plan and sticking to it makes all the difference. Dr. Stephen Carr and Paula Parsons returned to the sale where they have found eight G1 horses, including Eclipse Award champion Rubiano, Belmont Stakes victor Colonial Affair, and Breeders’ Cup winner Corinthian, and found another outstanding individual. Hip 203, from the second crop of the late champion Arrogate, was worth waiting until nearly the end of the sale. Learn more about him and how to get involved here.

Maiden victory for Royal Realm!

By | Cardinal, Latest News, Royal Realm

Exciting sophomore Royal Realm continued his improvement with a good looking maiden victory at Belmont Park! The three-year-old has made steady progress with each career start – in fact, this victory earned him a higher Beyer figure than a highly-touted allowance race on the same card. Jimmy Jerkens and his team have done a terrific job with this colt, building on the outstanding foundation laid by Paula Parsons Training in Middleburg. We’re hopeful his wonderful partners have a lot to look forward to as he keeps learning!

Rocketry Does it Again!

By | Latest News, Rocketry

*WOW*. Rocketry’s running style and the unique nature of his preferred marathon races can leave the big guy open to some unfavorable set-ups and bad luck. Though he’d continually run well, he entered the G2 Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance Stakes without a win since the race’s 2018 edition, when it contested as the G2 Marathon presented by the TAA at Churchill Downs. He ended the drought in a big, big way, with the kind of performance that leaves one speechless. We are so grateful to the phenomenal partners in the 2015 Crescent, LLC who make it all possible, Jimmy Jerkens and his staff, our team, including Paula Parsons and Dr. Carr, and tremendous Rocketry.

Mihos Mighty Impressive at Gulfstream

By | Latest News, Mihos

During uncertain times, mighty Mihos provided a much-appreciated boost with a sparkling victory at Gulfstream Park. The talented colt returned to the races off of a layoff with a solid third-place performance last month. With that effort under his belt, the stakes winner was able to capitalize, burying a strong allowance field by 3 1/4-lengths under Tyler Gaffalione. It’s an absolute delight to see Mihos back to his best form – the result of plenty of hard work by the team in Middleburg, the Jerkens barn, Dr. Carr, and plenty of patience from his phenomenal partners.
