Sleepy Eyes Todd

Sleepy Eyes Todd won his lone start as a 2-year-old but really started to figure things out in the second half of his 3-year-old campaign when he posted back-to-back allowance wins at Canterbury Park before running second to Owendale in the Grade 3 Oklahoma Derby. The Paddy O’Prado colt closed out his 3-year-old season with a half-length win in the Jeffrey A. Hawk Memorial Stakes at Remington Park Dec. 15, 2019.

Unplaced in a pair of graded stakes to begin his 4-year-old season, Sleepy Eyes Todd returned to the winner’s circle with a runaway 6 ½-length, front-running victory in the Bosselman Pump and Pantry/Gus Fonner Stakes April 29, 2020., at Fonner Park. Sleepy Eyes Todd next finished second by a half-length in the Lone Star Mile Stakes in June before leading from start to finish in a dominant 7 ½-length romp in the Grade 2 Charles Town Classic Stakes Aug. 28.

Sleepy Eyes Todd made his Grade 1 debut in the Awesome Again Stakes Sept. 26 at Santa Anita Park and faded to finish fifth, beaten by 12 ¼ lengths by Improbable.

Cutting back in distance to seven furlongs, Sleepy Eyes Todd closed from well off the pace to win the Lafayette Stakes by 1 ½ lengths Nov. 7 at Keeneland. He closed out his 2020 season with a half-length win in the Grade 3 Mr. Prospector Stakes Dec. 19 at Gulfstream Park.

Out of the Wild Rush mare Pledge Mom, Sleepy Eyes Todd is a half-brother to stakes winner Wildeydsouthernboy.
