I purchased Hoist the Cotton as a 4 year old after he was retired from racing, he is a 1992 model. Cotton is a Thoroughbred with Man O' War bloodlines but when it came to racing he wasn't the fastest horse around. We are fortunate enough to have one video of Cotton winning a race at the Woodlands race track. We purchased Cotton to be a pleasure horse and he is quite fun to ride and has a lot of "GO".
