Bio
Halladay, named for two-time Cy Young Award-winning pitcher and 2019 Hall of Fame inductee Roy Halladay, needed four starts to secure his first career win, taking a June 2019 maiden race at Belmont Park by a length after finishing in the top three in his first three races. He added an allowance win in September 2019 before placing in a pair of stakes in New York, both times beaten by less than a length.

He added an allowance win in September 2019 before placing in a pair of stakes in New York, both times beaten by less than a length.
Halladay earned a breakthrough stakes victory in the final start of his 3-year-old season when he led from start to finish in a 1 ¾-length win at Gulfstream Park in the Tropical Park Derby.
Halladay ran fourth in the Grade 3 Tampa Bay Stakes in his 2020 debut and then paired victories in an allowance race in April and the Sunshine Forever Stakes in May, both at Gulfstream Park and both leading from start to finish. After a fourth-place finish in the Grade 2 Bernard Baruch Handicap in July, Halladay had a coming-out party of sorts when he controlled the pace and powered to a 1 1/4-length victory in the Grade 1 Fourstardave Handicap Aug. 22 at Saratoga. The Fourstardave victory earned the War Front colt an expenses-paid berth in the FanDuel Breeders’ Cup Mile Presented by PDJF.
Multiple graded stakes winner Hightap, by Tapit, is the dam (mother) of Halladay.
