Trainer Bio

 

Resides Louisville, Kentucky with wife Tracey, daughter Shelby, 23 and son Brodie, 20

Wilkes grew up on a dairy farm in New South Wales, Australia, and started his racing career at 16 as a groom and exercise rider. He worked in the stables of Australian trainers Paul Sutherland, Vic Thompson Jr., and Colin Hayes and arranged through a friend to come to the U.S. and work for trainer Carl Nafzger. Wilkes arrived in 1989 and galloped horses for a year and a half. Among the horses he climbed aboard during that tour with Nafzger was Unbridled the 1990 Kentucky Derby and Breeders' Cup Classic winner, who went on to be an important sire. Wilkes went back to Australia to train for three years and returned in 1993 to work for Nafzger and became the top assistant. When Nafzger began scaling back his operation in 2005 and moved into semi-retirement in 2006, he turned the bulk of his stable over to Wilkes, who is based in Louisville. They continue their close association, and Wilkes helped Nafzger with the development of 2006 Breeders' Cup Juvenile and 2007 Kentucky Derby winner Street Sense.

The current superstar of the Wilkes stable is Fort Larned who won three graded stakes leading up to his victory in the 2012 Breeder’s Cup Classic.  He returned this year to win the G1 Stephen Foster at Churchill Downs this past June. 

Other stakes performers conditioned by Wilkes include Warrior’s Reward, Capt. Candyman Can, Bearpath, Miss Isella, and Court Folly with current  stakes horses  Neck ‘n Neck, Island Bound, Sweet and Lovely and Magic Hour.

Ian takes pride in the art of conditioning a horse both physically and mentally with the philosophy of allowing a horse to develop at his own pace and the chance to build a strong sense of confidence.  He starts many of his horses at the Skylight Training Center in Goshen, Kentucky near Louisville.  There, they train on the Pro-Ride racing surface.  Wife Tracey is a partner in the Wilkes’ training operations and son Brodie has also begun a career in thoroughbred racing.
