Purchased at the OBS April 2-Year-Old in Training Sale, Carson’s Run broke his maiden at first asking at Saratoga. He was then second in the With Anticipation Stakes (G3T) before winning the Summer Stakes (G1T) at Woodbine, a Breeders’ Cup Win and You’re In Challenge Race.
Carson’s Run is by Cupid out of the Henny Hughes mare Hot N Hectic. He’s trained by Christophe Clement.
The chestnut colt is named in honor of Carson Yost who, like Cody’s Wish’s namesake Cody Dorman, was born with the rare genetic disorder Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome. Carson is the son of Wade Yost, a former classmate of West Point Thoroughbreds’ founder Terry Finley at the United States Military Academy. Read more.
