Eclipse Award 2019

Vino Rosso named 2019 Champion Older Male
Vino Rosso commenced 2019 on a winning note with victory in the 1 mile Stymie S. He then went on to secure G1 honors with an authoritative win in the 10f G1 Gold Cup at Santa Anita. After 3rd in the G1 Whitney S., Vino Rosso was first across the line after a thrilling stretch duel in the 10f G1 Jockey Club Gold Cup Stakes only to be denied winning credentials by a controversial disqualification into 2nd place. Exacting sweet revenge, Vino Rosso capped off his year with a dominating victory in the 10f G1 Breeders Cup Classic

Eclipse Awards 2018 

​ John D. Gunther named 2018 Breeder of the Year
We are honored to have received the 2018 Eclipse Award for Outstanding Breeder. Justify's Triple Crown triumph along with graded stakes victories during the year by Without Parole (G1), Competitionofideas (G1), Vino Rosso (G2), Tiger Moth (G3), and The Lieutenant (G3) made for a landmark year for Glennwood's breeding program. The bar has been elevated to the top of the standards and we will continue to strive to produce racehorses of the highest calibre by harnessing our great passion for the horse and this sport

Justify named 2018 Horse of the Year & ​Champion Three Year Old Male
Justify won the 2018 Kentucky Derby, Preakness and Belmont to become only the 13th Triple Crown winner in the history of American racing. He retired undefeated, leaving the public hungry for more after a short but extraordinary career. His talent was incredible, his focus unwavering and his physique one of raw, dominating power. He was awarded 2018 Horse of the Year as well as 2018 Three Year Old Male. He is the best horse we have ever bred and he will stand as the model of perfection that we
​will strive to recreate for years to come


These achievements would not be possible without the support and dedication of
our employees and service providers
