A THOROUGHBRED WITH A DREAM! 

Stiglets foaled by Spun to Run out of Super Cute

It is GO TIME!!!

On August 30th, Stiglets proved that not only does he belong on racing’s biggest stage, but he also carries the heart of a true champion. Trapped near the back of the pack, he was forced to swing seven wide on the turn for home. His first rally was cut off, but instead of giving in, Stiglets dug deep and launched an electrifying stretch run to storm into second place.

The ownership group could not be more proud of his heart, determination, and raw talent. This performance is only the beginning. Stay tuned—an exciting announcement may be coming in the next few days! 

On July 26th at Ellis Park, Stiglets reminded us all that racing is never easy. At one point in the early betting, he was the 8/5 favorite—the public saw exactly what we already knew. As they rounded the turn and hit the sixteenth pole, Stiglets surged to the front, perfectly poised to win and punch his ticket to the $2 million stakes race at Kentucky Downs.

Then, out of nowhere, a charging horse came flying from behind, out of control, and slammed into Stiglets, forcing him toward the rail. Startled, he backed off, losing momentum and fading to finish eighth. Just the weekend before, he had fired a blistering 46.20 workout—every sign pointed to him being ready to win. But racing is hard.

Since he didn’t qualify for the $2 million race, Stiglets will regroup and take on the $200,000 1X allowance at Kentucky Downs in the coming weeks. His talent is real, and his story is far from finished.

 Hey Stiglets' Fans, Family, and Connections!

Get ready to rally—our superstar horse is headed to Ellis Park for his next big moment!

This morning, Stiglets turned heads with a sharp 49.40 four-furlong workout at Churchill Downs—a fantastic prep that shows he's ready to run big!

Stiglets is in great company this time out, facing familiar foes Hymn, Stummin, and Faust—all horses we've met before. And here’s the exciting part:

• ✅ Recently beat Hymn at Churchill Downs

• ✅ Took down Faust at Oaklawn Park

This is shaping up to be another exciting chapter in Stiglets’ storybook run. Let’s show up (in person or in spirit) and cheer loud for our champion. He runs best when he hears us rooting for him!

Stay tuned for race-day updates—and go Stiglets! 

June 1st, 2025 

 Stiglets ran an awesome race on June 1st at the iconic Churchill Downs! With Irad Ortiz Jr. in the irons, he put in a strong performance against a very tough field. The #1 horse, Hypnus from the McPeek barn, proved to be a monster and simply ran the better race that day.

Stiglets looked poised for second but just tired in the final strides. Still, the entire Stiglets team is thrilled with his effort and the progress he’s showing. We’re fired up for his next race—look for him at Ellis Park in early July!

Stiglets Shines in Storybook Victory at Oaklawn

Oaklawn was the scene of what can only be described as a storybook rebirth for Stiglets’ career. After being claimed in his last race, the talented colt needed time to reset and retrain. Following a brief respite, Stiglets was primed for his Hollywood moment.

Adding to the drama, Robin of Rockin Robin Racing Stables and Eric Stiglets—whom the horse was named after—also descended on Oaklawn, creating a perfect storm of opportunity and excitement. Everyone knew Stiglets had the pedigree and the ability to win, but the question loomed: was this going to be his day?

The race unfolded in cinematic fashion. Stiglets broke sharply, quickly getting into the top three. By the first turn, he had worked his way into a fierce duel with the heavy favorite. The two matched strides, neither willing to yield an inch, turning the race into a battle of wills.

As they reached the stretch, a third contender loomed large and tried to make a late bid. But the pressure only fueled Stiglets' determination. Digging deep, he found another gear and surged forward, refusing to be caught. In the end, Stiglets crossed the wire in front—by a neck!

The winner’s circle was electric—buzzing with disbelief, joy, and raw emotion.

This is just the beginning. Look out, Churchill Downs—Stiglets is coming!

It was an amazing ride by Ramon Vazquez and an incredible job over the last weeks by Philip D'Amato's team to get him ready and in top shape!
