Bio
Miguel Clement grew up surrounded by horse racing. His father, Christophe Clement, established himself as one of the leading trainers in New York starting in the 1980s after moving from his native France. Miguel graduated from Duke University and then the Darley Flying Start Program, and apprenticed with trainers in Dubai, South Africa, and England before joining his father as an assistant.

Miguel graduated from Duke University and then the Darley Flying Start Program, and apprenticed with trainers in Dubai, South Africa, and England before joining his father as an assistant.
Clement worked with his father for over 10 years as the family devised a plan for succession. That occurred due to sad circumstances as Miguel took over Christophe Clement’s stable when his father died from cancer on May 24, 2025 at age 59.
On June 4, Miguel earned his first win as a trainer when Coach Case prevailed in a maiden turf race at Saratoga during the Belmont Stakes Racing Festival. Just four days later, he earned his first Grade 1 victory on the closing race of Saratoga’s Belmont Stakes Festival as Deterministic prevailed in the Resorts World Casino Manhattan Stakes.
Miguel Clement is married to NYRA/FOX Sports racing analyst Acacia Clement.
