George W. Brown’s journey into horse ownership began as a practical solution for managing his farm’s grass, which led him to purchase a Quarter Horse. His lifelong interest in animal breeding and genetics naturally transitioned to Thoroughbred breeding, where he found joy in exploring bloodlines and breeding strategies. Initially drawn by the potential for profit, Brown soon realized the complexities of the industry, leading him to focus on breeding and selling foals rather than racing them.

Over the years, Brown refined his breeding operation, scaling back to two or three broodmares to manage his time better. He found success by selling at 2-year-old sales, where buyers could see the horses in action. His breeding efforts have yielded notable successes in international markets, with horses he bred achieving significant victories in places like Singapore and Korea, showcasing his ability to navigate the competitive landscape of Thoroughbred racing.

Running his operation solo, Brown emphasizes the personal connection he has with his horses, which he describes as majestic and affectionate. Breeding in Florida has been advantageous due to breeders’ awards, which support his business. Ultimately, Brown’s passion for horses drives his work, making it a fulfilling endeavor beyond mere profit.
