Bio
Forbidden Kingdom earned his first graded stakes win on Jan. 29, 2022, when he won the Grade 2 San Vicente Stakes at Santa Anita Park by 2 1/4 lengths. He set the early pace and fended off all challenges in the stretch for an impressive win, covering seven furlongs in 1:22.75.
Forbidden Kingdom earned his first graded stakes win on Jan. 29, 2022, when he won the Grade 2 San Vicente Stakes at Santa Anita Park by 2 1/4 lengths. He set the early pace and fended off all challenges in the stretch for an impressive win, covering seven furlongs in 1:22.75.
Based on that win, Forbidden Kingdom was the even-money favorite in the Grade 2 San Felipe Stakes at Santa Anita on Mar. 5. He had no trouble stretching out his speed, opening up a long early lead and holding clear late to win by 5 3/4 lengths and cement his credentials as a strong the Kentucky Derby Presented by Woodford Reserve contender. Those dreams were dashed, however, when he emerged from a last-of-six finish in the Runhappy Santa Anita Derby with a swollen throat. In June 2022, he missed another stretch of training with a bout of colic.
Forbidden Kingdom sold for $300,000 at the Fasig-Tipton Selected Yearlings Showcase in 2020. He's a son of 2015 Triple Crown champion American Pharoah, out of the graded stakes winning mare Just Louise.
