Over the years, Tom Grossman has built a premier stable of stallions, including purchasing syndicated racehorses Art Major, Bettor’s Delight, and Credit Winner. Tom Grossman has invested more than $6 million in broodmares to benefit his stallion team, as well as completely renovated Blue Chip Farms.
