Shadey at Old Friends
Courtesy Old
Friends website
Foaled
in Great Britain, Slim Shadey raced in England and Ireland,
then at age four was imported to America by his breeder, Phil
Cunningham. Our firmer turf proved to be just his style. He
won the 2012 San Marcos S (G2) at 1 ¼ mile at Santa
Anita, trained by Simon Callaghan with David Flores riding.
Three impressive seconds followed, in the San Luis Rey (G2),
Woodford Reserve (G1) (won by Little Mike), and Charles
Whittingham Memorial (G1). That fall he achieved his second
Grade 2 victory in the John Henry Turf Championship at 1 ¼
mile with Garrett Gomez piloting. At five Slim won his third
graded stakes, the 2013 San Marcos (G2), with jockey Gary
Stevens. Though Slim placed and showed in two 2014 graded
stakes, the Elkwood at Monmouth Park was his only stakes win
that year. Thereafter he continued to campaign and earn
steadily at top tracks for five more years. In August 2019 the
valiant competitor ran his final race at age 11. A true “grand
old gelding,” he earned career stats of 83 starts with
14 wins, 16 seconds and 4 thirds for $1,278,855. Old Friends
is grateful to his final racing owner, Michael M. Hui, and to
trainer Michael J. Maker for enabling Slim Shadey’s
retirement with us.
