Casa Creed (foaled March 21, 2016) is an American multiple Grade I turf winning Thoroughbred racehorse. His Grade I wins included the Jaipur Stakes both in 2021 and 2022 at Belmont Park, and the Fourstardave Handicap at Saratoga Race Course in 2022 and 2023.
Background
Casa Creed is a bay horse bred in Kentucky by Silver Springs Stud, a son of 2012 Malibu Stakes winner Jimmy Creed out of the unraced Bellamy Road mare Achalaya. Casa Creed is the first of her six foals. Achalaya also has a two-year-old Distorted Humor colt, a yearling Omaha Beach colt, and a 2022 Authentic filly. In 2022 his sire Jimmy Creed stands at Spendthrift Farm for US$10,000.
Casa Creed was first bought at the Ocala Breeder's Sales Company 2017 Winter mixed Sale for US$15,000 from the Janie Roper consignment by Amalio Ruiz-Lozano. Later that year Casa Creed was bought for US$105,000 from the Kelli Mitchell consignment at the Keeneland September Yearling Sale by LRE Racing.
After two starts in 2018 LRE Racing sold a share to Mike Francesa, New York sports talk radio presenter's JEH Racing Stable.
Casa Creed was trained by U.S. Racing Hall of Fame trainer William I. Mott. He was retired from racing after a fourth-place finish in the Poker Stakes at Saratoga as an eight-year-old. He will stand the 2025 stud season at Mill Ridge Farm in Lexington, Kentucky.
