Old Friends at Cabin Creek, the New York satellite of Georgetown, Kentucky’s Old Friends Thoroughbred Retirement Center, has announced the arrival of Be Bullish.

The 10-year-old gray New York-bred gelding by Pure Prize celebrated his 19th win on May 17 when he won a $16,000 claiming race at Belmont Park, in Elmont, New York. It was his 87th career start. Following his win Be Bullish was claimed by prominent owner Mike Repole, who purchased the horse with the sole intent of retiring him from racing.

Repole said that Be Bullish "has put in his time, he’s going out on top, he’s going out in the winner’s circle. If every horse could have an ending like this, the sport would be in a much better place."

Be Bullish, who retires with more than $1 million in earnings, will live out his days at Old Friends Cabin Creek near Saratoga Springs, which is also home to Repole retiree Cool N’ Collective
