KIRK GODBY:
FOUNDER & CO-MANAGING PARTNER

Kirk has been involved in the thoroughbred business for over 30 years. His passion for the Sport came from being involved in his father’s racing operation. In order to learn the business from the ground up Kirk spent several months at Louisiana Downs in 1992 where he worked as a groom.

In March of 2010 he co-founded Don’t Tell My Wife Stables with the goal of introducing individuals to the thrills and excitement of owning a piece of a thoroughbred race horse.
