Note: In 2017, Flameaway broke his maiden in his first start at Woodbine then shipped to Saratoga to win the Skidmore Stakes. Next he went to Churchill Downs to finish 6th in the Iroquois Stakes (G3), then Keeneland to win the Bourbon Stakes (G3), and closed out the year with a dismal 8th place finish in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf (G1). He made his 2018 debut winning the Kitten's Joy Stakes at Gulfstream Park then over to Tampa Bay Downs to win the Sam F. Davis Stakes (G3) and finish 2nd the Tampa Bay Derby. Off those results he was a late nomination to the Triple Crown. For his final prep he finished 2nd beaten 1 1/2 lengths by Good Magic in the Blue Grass Stakes (G1).
