Registration Number: #1498
Registered Name: Furious Flyer
Nickname: Furious
Age: Three years (Y13)
Breed: Thoroughbred
Colour & Markings: Bay
Height: 17.0hh
Gender: Colt
Personality:With a name like Furious you would expect this colt to be just that, and you would be half right. Furious is also nicknamed Fast and Furious, because his fury only comes out on the track. When racing he is so fiercely determined to win he will actually attempt to physically take down any horse that gets in his way. For this reason he has to run in the lead, on his own, and unfortunately this can sometimes affect his results, just like it has in the past for his furious relatives. Off the track Furious is less furious, and becomes more like a big grumpy teddy bear, with people anyway. Towards other horses he is still a bit of a thug and of course being a colt has to be grazed alone, but that doesn't stop him bossing about horses two pastures away from him. He has even already asserted dominance over some of our less aggressive stallions.
Pedigree: Furious Passion x Born To Soar
Pedigree Comments:Parents like these need no introduction. Grade one Furious Passion is the second of only two Triple Crown Champions on Green Horse Fields, and was also the winner of the Breeder's Cup Juvenile, the Dubai Colt Cup, the Dubai World Cup and the Breeder's Cup Marathon. He is sired by G1 Impassioned Wind and out of Hall of Fame mare Rising Fury. Hall of Fame mare Born To Soar, foaled by G1 Born To Fly and sired by Hall of Fame stallion The Natural, was the first Triple Tiara Champion on Green Horse Fields and also crowned Horse of the Year as a three year old. Her wins aside from the Triple Tiara are too many to name all, but she was competitive on both surfaces and won two Breeder's Cup races, retiring with a record of 59-29-17-9.

Race Record: 12-4-4-2
Grade: Four
Surface: Dirt
Distance: 9-12 Furlongs
Leg Type: Front
Racing Style:Furious is a front runner through and through, just like his famous granddam and many of his relatives. He breaks like a rocket and goes right for the lead.. as well as the throat of any horse that tries to take his precious lead from him. Furious makes his bid for the win as soon as he feels the rest of the field breathing down his neck, within 1.5 and 2 furlongs to go.
