Overview

The first crop of our G1 winner and millionaire Preservationist was exceptionally well-received at the Keeneland September Sale. This colt is the first foal out of Belmont winner from an outstanding family developed by Airdrie Stud

He underwent his early training at the Middleburg Training Center and was made eligible for the lucrative Virginia Residency Program. Antiquarian joined the Todd Pletcher stable in October at Palm Beach Downs in Delray Beach, Florida.

Our Preservationist offspring started off his career with a strong performance finishing second against a tough field January 13 at Gulfstream Park.  It only took another start to break his maiden when he shipped to the Fair Grounds Race Course February 17 to win on a sloppy track going 1 1/16 miles.

He waded into graded stakes territory in his third start running in the G2 $1,000,000 Louisiana Derby on March 23 at the Fair Grounds Race Course.  Breaking through the gate prior to the race, bobbled at the start, and traveling wide, Antiquarian was still only beat by four lengths and posted a career high Beyer of 92.   We couldn’t be more proud of this colt.
