Robert Falcone Jr. was born with racing in his blood, it was his love of horses and passion for racing that led him to the track where he learned to gallop and worked under trainer Dominick Schettino in high school before going out on his own at the age of 20. He made his start at Belmont Park with a few horses owned by his father Robert Falcone Sr. and has continued to grow his stable with a great group of clients.
Since he took out his trainer’s license in 2014, Falcone has maintained a highly competitive stable on the East Coast circuit with strings at Belmont, Saratoga, Monmouth Park, Keeneland, Fairgrounds, and Gulfstream during their respective meets. Falcone takes great pride in the horses under his care and has proven to be a top conditioner. His hands-on approach combined with his knowledge of the racing industry has contributed to his success thus far.
Falcone became a multiple graded stakes winner in 2016 with Mind Your Biscuits in the (Gr. 2) Amsterdam Stakes at Saratoga. Mind Your Biscuits then went on to place an impressive second in the (Gr. 1) TwinSpires Breeders’ Cup Sprint. At next asking, Falcone captured his first (Gr. 1) win when Mind Your Biscuits won the Malibu Stakes at Santa Anita Park. Other notable wins include the Woodford Reserve Virginia Oaks, Miss Liberty Stakes, Albert M. Stall Memorial Stakes, Plenty of Grace Stakes with Spirit And Glory (IRE), and the Broadway Stakes (Black Type) with Kept Waiting. Falcone’s stable has over 1,350 starts and has earned cumulative purse money exceeding $11 million.
