True Timber competed on the Triple Crown trail via the New York circuit in winter 2017, placing in two consecutive graded stakes at Aqueduct.
Owned by Brad Kelley's Calumet Farm and trained by Kiaran McLaughlin, True Timber finished third in the Jerome Stakes in January and second in the Withers Stakes in February, both times to El Areeb.
True Timber did not progress to run in the Triple Crown races in 2017, and for the next three years amassed over $1 million in earnings without winning a stakes race. He ran a very good second in the 2018 Grade 1 Cigar Mile, finishing three-quarters of a length behind Patternrecognition, and then checked in third in the 2019 renewal, and also hit the board in five other stakes races from fall 2018 to fall 2020. Jack Sisterson assumed training duties for True Timber after Kiaran McLaughlin retired in spring 2020.
The third time proved to be the charm for True Timber in the Dec. 5, 2020, Cigar Mile at Aqueduct, as he stalked a hot early pace in third behind Kendrick Carmouche and powered clear to score a breakthrough 5 ½-length victory.
True Timber, a son of 2003 Horse of the Year Mineshaft, is out of the Tiznow mare Queen's Wood.
