Bourbon Bash

Bourbon Bash had a busy 2-year-old campaign during 2022, running a total of seven times including the lone victory coming versus maidens going six furlongs at Saratoga on Aug. 13. Bourbon Bash finished fifth in the Grade 1 Hopeful Stakes at Saratoga and 12th in the Grade 1 Breeders' Cup Juvenile at Keeneland, before getting some class relief and later hitting the board in a pair of un-graded stakes later in the season with a second-place finish in the $200,000 Bowman Mill Stakes at Keeneland on Oct. 29, and in the $150,000 Renaissance Stakes at Oaklawn Park on Dec. 31.

Bourbon Bash began his 3-year-old season with a second-place finish behind Gun Pilot going a mile in an allowance optional claiming race at Oaklawn Park on Feb. 4. Next it was a return to stakes company for Bourbon Bash in the Grade 2 $1 million Rebel Stakes at Oaklawn on Feb. 25, when Bourbon Bash came in fifth in a field of 11.

Bourbon Bash is trained by D. Wayne Lukas. He was bred in Kentucky by the sire City of Light out of the mare Buy Sell Hold by Violence.
