ENDORSED gets a rousing vote of approval! A multiple graded stakes-winning miler and earner of $970,133 in 36 starts, ENDORSED is a son of sire of sires MEDAGLIA D’ORO and a half-brother to Horse of the Year, $3-million earner and two-time Breeders’ Cup Dirt Mile-G1 winner CODY’S WISH, as well as to the dam of Gr. 1-winning juvenile EAST AVENUE (by Medaglia d’Oro). He’s out of $502,200-earner DANCE CARD, a daughter of Tapit who was never off the board in seven starts, four in stakes, including a win in the Gr. 1 Gazelle S. and a third in the Breeders’ Cup Filly and Mare Sprint-G1. ENDORSED won his 2-year-old debut going 6 fur. at Saratoga and, in his first start at 3, scored a 6-fur. Belmont allowance in 1:08.78, two starts before finishing fourth of 12 in the Gr. 1 Travers. Five of his eight stakes performances were graded, with wins in the Gr. 2 Gulfstream Park Mile and Gr. 3 Fred W. Hooper. Proving soundness and class, ENDORSED raced from 2 to 7, counted seven wins while finishing in the top three 20 times. He recorded Equibase Speed Figures of 100 or more 20 times. His oldest foals are yearlings in 2026.
