Richard’s Boy opened his career with three straight victories before tasting defeat for the first time when third in his stakes debut in the Echo Eddie Stakes in April 2015. He rebounded to win the Desert Code Stakes at Santa Anita Park and later that year added a second stakes victory in the Jess Jackson Owners’ Handicap.
He placed in five stakes races in 2016, including the Grade 3 Eddie D. Stakes and the Grade 3 San Simeon Stakes, but did not win another stakes race until January 2017 when he scored in the Donald Valpredo California Cup Sprint Stakes. He added a victory in the Jim McKay Turf Sprint Stakes in May 2017.
Richard’s Boy prepped for the Breeders’ Cup Turf Sprint with a runner-up finish by a half-length in the California Flag Handicap. Two weeks later he ran arguably the nest race of his career when taking the lead in the Turf Sprint before coming up a head short when second to stablemate Stormy Liberal.
