Where LSU ranks historically in the SEC. How fitting.

silks
Is that what it’s called?
That’s more surprising than seeing an LSU silk.

Far Bridge is owned by LSU Stables

The Sarf family has been in the horse racing business since 1987. Larry and his wife, Leslie, went on their first date to Belmont Park in 1967! Through the years, they owned 15 horses and won 2 New York State bred stakes in a row: Quiet Ruler (2002) and The Mohawk (2003). In the 1990's, they won the Toboggan with Blare of Trumpets. They have been long-time racing fans and they are now recently back in the game with 9 horses. On July 8, LSU Stables won the Grade 1 Belmont Derby Invitational with Far Bridge. Larry, Leslie, and their son, Randy, play a big role in the purchasing of their horses. Larry and Leslie have one son, Randy, and 4 grandchildren.

He was supposed to really be something. The purchase then trainer switch didn’t pan out. Back with original trainer, but he ran like a sore horse down the stretch and was late switching leads.

I did attend Centenary back in the late 60's while stationed at Barksdale.

You'd think you'd see ULL livery. How many jockeys does Lafayette export a year?

The stunning development was that LSU owner Larry Sarf did not attend Louisiana State University. The stable's silks may be purple and gold like the Tigers of the South, and Sarf's son, Randy, can be seen at the races in Louisiana State-like jackets and sneakers. Yet the patriarch of LSU Stables grew up near Coney Island and sold knishes on the beach, lives on Long Island, and has much more of a New York accent than a Cajun tone.
"We'll probably get an award from LSU," said Larry Sarf, who explained the LSU stems from his wife Leslie (L), Sarf (S), and a Distorted Humor filly (U, with the H dropped from Humor).

Stanton flurry names a lot of his horses after LSU players, etc. Fournette was pretty good a few years ago. We currently have Orgeron in our barn learning to jump
I’m pretty sure he said he has a filly good enough to name Mulkey now too.
