Hall of Famer D. Wayne Lukas is the newest addition to the MyRacehorse cast of trainers, as he will condition a yearling colt by Arrogate out of well-bred stakes-placed runner and producer Smart Shopping (Smart Strike) for the micro-share syndication company. The colt was purchased for $300,000 at the Fasig-Tipton Saratoga sale as hip 79.
“Adding a world-class name such as D. Wayne Lukas to MyRacehorse is an honor,” MyRacehorse CEO Michael Behrens said. “Teaming up to provide our owners with the opportunity to say their horse is trained by the 'Coach', and an Arrogate no less, is very exciting and what we strive to provide as we celebrate racehorse ownership with our growing owner base.”
Lukas also trains Arrogate's 2022 GI Kentucky Oaks heroine Secret Oath.
“D. Wayne Lukas is still the King at the age of 86 as evidenced by his success in this year's Kentucky Oaks with Secret Oath,” said Roderick Wachman, MyRacehorse's Global Head of Bloodstock and Racing. “A supreme master of his trade and one who has mentored some of the best trainers in the business, Wayne's horsemanship skills to this day are to be revered.”
