Booked Full and Closed in 2019

Downbytheseaside caused a splash as one of the best 2-year-olds in his class.  He equaled the world record (1:49) for freshman pacing colts during his International Stallion Stake division at The Red Mile and broke the world record (1:50) for his age/sex on a half-mile track when racing at the Delaware County Fairgrounds. Downbytheseaside ended his initial campaign with a dominating win in the $520,000 Governors Cup at Woodbine Racetrack.

Downbytheseaside continued to perform as a 3-year-old, ending up in the winner's circle in both the $500,000 Messenger Stakes and $300,000 Art Rooney at Yonkers Raceway, and posting an impressive track-record setting 1:49 3/5 victory in the $300,000 Carl Milstein Memorial over Fear The Dragon at Northfield Park. Downbytheseaside rebounded from a tough runner-up finish in the Breeders Crown with a win the $245,000 Monument Circle at Hoosier Park, setting a new lifetime mark of 1:48 3/5, and then followed up that win with victories in the Matron and Hap Hansen Progress Pace elimination and final. 

He bred a full book of mares in 2018 and is booked full again in 2019.  His first crop is greatly anticipated this year.
