Bourbon Delight is a really big, solid hunk of a horse. He has a tremendous presence, not just because of his size, but also because of the way he carries himself. He has a big, powerful hind end that he used in his big, powerful trot. His gallop must be something else. He has had some success on the track, but 2025 was the year he said he was done trying to win, and that is lucky for us because he will make an incredible sport horse. We could also see him out hunting. He is energetic and big, so we don't recommend him for a complete beginner.
