Abigail Fuller
On July 6, 1985, Mom’s Command captured the 1 1/2-mile Coaching Club American Oaks by 2 1/2 lengths and with it, New York’s prestigious triple crown for fillies. Thirty years have passed since Abby Fuller and Mom’s Command made racing history. A lifetime ago it seems, “almost inconceivable,” says Fuller, now a grandmother. Time passes, but memories of a very special horse remain with the woman who rode her straight into the Hall of Fame. Abby” is now considered Gulfstream Park’s Racing Ambassador. She hosts the Saturday morning breakfast teaching fans of all ages the nuances of racing. She also gives VIP Tours and can often be found in the Information Booth during live racing. During her “off” days she works at a facility named “Stable Place” as an Equine Therapist and is working towards accreditation in Equine Assisted Mental Health.
