Playful, curious, and fiery, this little guy is a natural born winner. He was originally a rescue horse, but Helena saw his potential. She took him in and he's began his career as a racer, eventer, and friend. She's had him for a year now, and he's already made it to grade one racing. This is a reflection of King's dedicated and steadfast nature.
A turf-loving sprinter, King was a true champion here and away from Green Horse fields. He worked hard to show the world that a lanky rescue horse could be a great racer. Boy did he prove it. With 34 wins out of 58 starts and a 91% placing percentage, he was truely a winner. Throughout his career, King earned over 70 million dollars and 200,000 points. He was always up for a race and often took the field by storm. He is now retired from racing and proving himself in the eventing world as well.
King is now retired from racing and competing in three day eventing and halter. With that gorgous conformation, he already has one halter champion title and two reserve champion titles.
He currently has three foals: Strictly Royal (x Strictly Speaking), Here's The King (x Here's Hell), and Well Red (x Strictly Speaking). Strictly Roayl is doing well at CAFi and Here's The King is doing fantastic at GHS, having won GHF's Next Top Racehorse, Race One. Well Red will become a yearling in January of 2009 and then we'll see what she's really got.
