Team

Lifelong horseman Doug Cauthen brings a unique blend of hands-on experience and business acumen to the Three Chimneys board. After earning a BS in Equine Marketing and Management and a law degree from the University of Kentucky, Doug briefly practiced law before re-entering the Thoroughbred industry full-time. Doug has worked for Hall of Fame trainers Laz Barrera and P.G. Johnson, British stalwart Clive Britain, and with the top two-year-old consignor Jerry Bailey. In 1997 he formed a consulting and management sales company while concurrently marketing the stallions for Prestonwood Farm. Doug was a key member of the team that transitioned Prestonwood into WinStar Farm, and he was named the President of WinStar in 2001. In the Fall of 2010, after spending ten years helping to develop WinStar into an industry leader, which culminated with Super Saver’s Kentucky Derby and Drosselmeyer’s Belmont victory, he formed Doug Cauthen Thoroughbred Management. In addition to Three Chimneys, Doug is proud to consult for Aaron and Marie Jones, Casner Racing LP, Peter Blum, Lael Stable, Woodslane Farm, and Whisper Hill Farm, among others.
