Arctic Arrogance

Arctic Arrogance began his career with a win at first asking at Saratoga in a 2-year-old maiden race on Sept. 5, 2022, when he scored wire-to-wire by a length going six furlongs. He made his next two starts versus New York-bred stakes competition, first with a runner-up finish in the $125,000 Bertram F. Bongard Stakes going seven furlongs at Belmont at the Big A on Sept. 29, and then with a victory back at the Big A on Oct. 30 in the $200,000 Sleepy Hollow Stakes going one mile, which he won by a 4 1/2-length margin in a field of 10.

Arctic Arrogance made his final start of 2022 against open company in the Grade 2 Remsen Stakes, on Dec. 3 at Aqueduct. Arctic Arrogance led much of the way until caught by a half a length in the stretch by Dubyahnell to finish second. In turn he was 11 1/4 lengths ahead of the third-place horse. The place finish earned Arctic Arrogance 4 points on the road to the 2023 Kentucky Derby. In all, Arctic Arrogance finished his 2-year-old campaign with two wins and two seconds with earnings just over $233,000.

Arctic Arrogance began his 3-year-old campaign at Aqueduct on Jan. 7, 2023, in the $150,000 Jerome Stakes, which was another points race on the road to the 2023 Kentucky Derby. He once again settled for second, and in the process accumulated another 4 Kentucky Derby points.

Arctic Arrogance is trained by Linda Rice. He was bred in New York by the sire Frosted out of the mare Modern Maven by Uncle Mo.
