St. Armands Key: Rising Star in Thoroughbred Racing

November 27, 2023 Posted by Clark Shepherd News

St. Armands Key, a two-year-old colt, is making his mark in the thoroughbred racing scene. His performance at Fair Grounds Race Course & Slots on November 25, 2023, where he won a $52,000 Maiden Special Weight race, highlights his potential as a racehorse.

This victory was the result of consistent development over three races. Starting at Kentucky Downs with a sixth-place finish and an Equibase Speed Figure of 55, St. Armands Key showed early potential. He improved to finish second at Keeneland, achieving a Speed Figure of 81. At Fair Grounds, he maintained this figure and secured his first win, showing his ability to perform consistently.

One notable aspect of St. Armands Key’s story is his acquisition. Clark Shepherd of Shepherd Equine Advisers purchased him for $15,000 at the KEENOV sale on behalf of International Equine. This investment is proving strategic, as he has already earned ,900.

St Armands Key as a sales weanling

Born to Lost Treasure (IRE) and Henny’s Hurricane (by Henny Hughes), St. Armands Key has a pedigree that suggested he could be successful in racing. His lineage includes a mix of speed and endurance, which he has started to demonstrate on the track.

His win at Fair Grounds was a result of good positioning and pace setting. Jockey Jaime Torres, working with trainer Joe Sharp, guided him effectively, leading him to victory over a 1 1/16 miles turf course in 1:44.83.

Looking at his overall career, St. Armands Key’s journey from a promising weanling to a winning racehorse is a story of careful selection, training, and racing strategy. His development and performances to date suggest a promising future in thoroughbred racing.
