With his family’s foundation, Mr. Cooper’s philanthropy is multi-faceted and BREEDER OF THE YEAR MINT JULEP CUP reaches beyond our national border. This includes volunteering, holding directorships and officer positions, as well as having the Cooper family name 2015 Tall Oaks Farm 2015 Theodore Burnett on various buildings, Chairs, and scholarships. 2014 Paradox Farm, Inc. 2014 Dan Loiselle Having just turned 96 in April this year, Mr. Cooper may arguably be the oldest 2013 Sam-Son Farm 2013 R. Glenn Sikura active thoroughbred owner in Canada. He has been part of the 2012 William D. Graham 2012 A. & G. Cappuccitti world since 1972 and has never missed a racing season.

One of the most telling 2009 Ellie Boje Farm 2009 Michael Burns signs of Mr. Cooper’s loyalty to the Ontario racing industry can be seen in his 2008 Adena Springs 2008 D. Morgan Firestone dedication to homebreds. 2007 Mike Carroll & John C.

McClelland John the Magician, who won the 1997 Breeders’ Stakes. In keeping with his 1997 Glenview Stables Ltd. 1997 Dr. John Brown ‘giving back’ philosophy, Syd named a 1999 foal Espee Ess, after the School of Practice Science at University of Toronto, and then donated a portion of its’ 1996 Minshall Farms 1996 James T. Sabiston $235,401 earnings. 1995 Gustav Schickedanz 1995 Charles Taylor The R.M.C.

Minshall 1993 Frank Stronach and then stood at stud. Other Stakes successes include: Ascot Yael, Mister 1992 Knob Hill Stable 1992 George Gardiner Coop, Aunt Els, Lynclar, Indian Dan, Kettle Rapids, Decew Falls, and the gritty Consolidator Joe, who finished in the top three in 25 of his 30 career starts and 1991 Sam-Son Farm 1991 Ernie Samuel was named the Toronto Club’s “claimer of the year” in 1990 Ltd. 1990 Harry Hindmarsh 2011. On consecutive years, Syd’s Kettle Rapids won the Puss n’ Boots Stakes at 1989 Sam-Son Farm 1989 D.G. Willmot Fort Erie (Syd did not jump into the infield pond, rather, he left that to the jockey and the groom). Mr. Cooper’s own words are the most fitting when he says “Our family believes in the rule of the three T’s, the sharing of one’s Time, Talent and Treasure”. And we thank you for sharing these with the Ontario racing industry.
