Wow what a handsome hunk of horse. Victory Built’s owner/trainer adores him and describes her beautiful boy as a very kind horse, with loads of personality. She claimed him at the end of the 2023 racing season because she had admired his personality and beauty and his excellent racing history. After bringing him back to the races this year, she noticed that his heart didn’t seem in it anymore and he wasn’t going to return to the racing successes of his past that had him winning at the top level NYRA circuit and racking up a 50% top three record in 50 starts with over $250,000 in earnings. His 2024 race makes him fully eligible for the 2025 or 26 RRP. She recently gelded Victory Built, but she told us that he never acted studdish when he was intact. She says that Victory Built is sound, but he does have old “ankle jewelry” (in non-track lingo, old set osselets) that he has raced on for a while and should not limit him for any new career. On the day we photographed him, he had not done much other than shedrow walking for a few weeks since she had decided to take him out of race training, so while he posed quietly and perfectly, he was understandably a bit full of himself for his jog video. Nonetheless, he still showed very nice movement, with a light and lofty trot, good hind end engagement, and reach from the shoulders. Based on his build, movement, and pedigree, we think he has excellent sport horse potential in many disciplines, ranging from dressage to eventing to H/J. He is sired by Big Brown, a sire well known for getting good jumpers and eventers, who is from the Danzig sire line. His dam is by Dixie Union who is by Dixieland Band. Broad Brush, Roberto, Damascus, and Northern Dancer are other top sport horse TB sires in his pedigree.
