A week ago today I was inducted into the Southern California Jewish Sports Hall of Fame, a truly humbling honor. I share this distinction with my family, staff, horsemen/women & partners @EclipseTBP and of course, the horses! It is as much their award as it is mine. #BelieveBig

FORMIDABLE MAN is just that 🏆 The son of City of Light is now a Grade I winner at ages 3, 4, and 5 following his comfortable victory in Monday's GI Shoemaker Mile Stakes at Santa Anita Park.
Given a letter-perfect steer by Flavien Prat, Formidable Man pinched a winning break and flexed his muscles to the wire to score by 1 1/4 lengths in his seasonal debut.
"He's just such a genuine racehorse," said winning trainer Michael McCarthy.
The Shoemaker Mile marked Formidable Man's first start since running home to be a gallant second to Notable Speech in the GI Breeders' Cup Mile at Del Mar last November. Among his nine wins from 17 career starts, the 5-year-old has secured six graded stakes victories while earning $1,685,425.
Bred by Town & Country Horse Farms, LLC, Formidable Man is owned by Mr. & Mrs. William K. Warren and was ridden by Flavien Prat.
