Yankee
Fourtune at Old Friends Courtesy
Old Friends website
Bred
in Kentucky by Brereton C. Jones, multiple graded stakes
winner Yankee Fourtune began his career racing on the dirt but
found his strong suit at two turns on the turf.
At
three he won the Hawthorne Derby (G3) in Illinois and the
Commonwealth Turf Stakes (G3) at Churchill Downs, for owners
Harvey Clarke and Andrew Albstein, trained by Kiaran
McLaughlin.
At
four, Yankee Fourtune finished third in the Canadian Turf
Stakes at Florida’s Gulfstream Park.
By
five he was still competitive, if at a more modest level.
Claimed for $50K by Michael Dubb and Bethlehem Stables and
trained by Rudy Rodriguez he won at Belmont with Ramon
Dominguez up. Acquired by his final racing connections, Take
Two Stables and trainer Jason Servis, he won at Belmont with
Jose Ortiz riding, and at the Meadowlands with Christopher De
Carlo. The grey gelding went out a winner at Monmouth in 2014
with Paco Lopez in the irons, but it was clear his career was
winding down.
He
retired with 31 starts, 9 wins, 7 seconds and 2 thirds for
$391,975.
Yankee
Fourtune joined the retirees at Old Friends in 2015 due to the
efforts and support of Harvey Clarke, for whom the gelding had
achieved success in graded stakes.
