The success of First Faith Thoroughbreds began eight years after its founding in year twenty-five, when Sky Soldier won the Lavalleja Stakes. Two weeks later, Sic Vita Est won Arizona's Classic Stakes at Tucson Raceway, followed shortly by another Sky Soldier victory in the Romantico Prize. Later that year, Contestation earned us our first graded stakes victory in Japan's Osaka All Comers. Heroes Walk Alone became the next milestone horse for First Faith Thoroughbreds. The little black gelding became our first homebred stakes winner, taking the Iavarone Stakes at the end of year twenty-five, and then our first homebred graded stakes winner with a victory in the next year's Chicago Derby. Year twenty-six also saw the debut of Wind in the Sage. A stakes winner at two, three, four, and five, Wind in the Sage was our first grade one winner, millionaire and champion. The following year marked one of the most important developments in our dirt router division: Accused Dreamer's first stakes victory. The big chestnut mare won five graded stakes for us during her career, and is the dam of our Louisville Oaks winner Fancy Her Kiss, as well as multiple graded stakes winners Fairy Murmur and The Girl On Fire, and grade one winners Happier and The Revenant. | |
Our first dirt route Steward's Cup winner was a homebred filly named Tempest. The little dark filly was the undefeated Champion Two-Year-Old Filly as a juvenile and went on to earn eight stakes victories and only once finish worse than fourth. Only two years later on the heels of Tempest was another small, dark horse: homebred colt Through the Ghost. He emulated Tempest in going undefeated as a juvenile and winning the Steward's Cup Juvenile, earning two-year-old honors himself. He was a five-time grade one winner and earned over $5 million. Included in his first crop at stud was a filly out of Tempest who was a multiple grade one winner. Years later, his son, Castles Crumble, earned the first Steward's Cup Classic victory for First Faith Thoroughbreds. Follow the links below to view our racing string.
