This unique private experience takes a tour of some of the many different aspects of the industry WinStar is involved in, starting at our stallion complex, you will have the opportunity to meet the stallions, learn about breeding, how these horses earned their way into our stallion barn and even get to give a stallion a peppermint.
You will then get to tour some of our other divisions, you will have the chance to see mares, foals, stallions, yearlings, and racehorses depending on the season.One of the stops unique to this tour is our state of the art training center, including our track, hyperbaric chamber, and other equipment that helps keep our racehorses in top condition.
We will stop by the office where guests will get to see some of the awards, trophies, and saddle cloths we have been awarded including Derby trophies, and the Triple Crown trophy that we won in 2018 with Justify.
ABOUT WINSTAR FARM
WinStar was founded on a dream in 2000 by friends and business partners, Kenny Troutt and Bill Casner. What started as a 400-acre property – the former Prestonwood Farm – has grown to over 2,500 acres and is home to nearly 700 horses. WinStar started with just 4 stallions, one of which happened to be a young, unproven Distorted Humor who went on to sire 4 champions.
A lot like Distorted Humor, WinStar had a humble beginning, but now competes at the highest level of racing, is home to elite stallions such as Speightstown and Constitution, and brilliant broodmares, which helped earn the farm two Eclipse awards for Outstanding Breeder in 2016 and 2020. WinStar regularly ranks among the Top 10 North American breeders and has been in the Top Five by earnings each year since 2014. WinStar topped all breeders in 2018 with $8.6 million in earnings.
We attribute our success to our dedication to the horse, from birth through retirement. Our commitment to the horse and our wider community is at the core of our mission statement, “The WinStar family strives to glorify God by raising superior horses, using the most caring and innovative practices, while loving our neighbors as ourselves, whether employees, clients, or vendors.” WinStar aims to be a guiding light not only in the thoroughbred industry, but also to our community.
