Itsmyluckyday (foaled in Kentucky on March 31, 2010) is an American Thoroughbred racehorse. Itsmyluckyday is a multiple graded stakes winner who finished second in the 2013 Preakness Stakes to Oxbow and won the Woodward Stakes in 2014.
Itsmyluckyday is a dark brown horse bred by Liberation Farm & Brandywine Farm. He was from the second crop of foals sired by Lawyer Ron, the American Champion Older Male Horse of 2007 when he won the Whitney Handicap and the Woodward Stakes.
In March 2012, the colt was consigned to the Ocala Breeders' Sales where he was bought for $110,000 by David Melin.
Itsmyluckyday began his racing career at his home track at Monmouth Park in New Jersey in a $40,000 maiden race on June 23, 2012. In that five-furlong debut, he broke third, caught the leaders around the turn three wide and drove clear under jockey Angel Serpa to a two-length victory. In his next start, his trainer Edward Plesa, Jr. decided to run him in stakes company in the $60,000 Tyro Stakes at five furlongs at Monmouth. In the Tyro on August 5, Itsmyluckyday broke sixth and finished sixth.
In late August, Plesa took his entire stable down to Calder Race Course for the autumn and winter. On August 25, Itsmyluckyday ran in a listed stakes race called the $75,000 Fasig-Tipton Turf Dash at five furlongs. In this sprint, he broke sixth and advanced to third going into the turn. Itsmyluckyday chased the leaders under jockey Manoel Cruz and drew away to win by four lengths. In his next start, Itsmyluckyday raced in the $100,000 Foolish Pleasure Stakes at a mile and 70 yards at Calder. He broke in fourth under jockey Manoel Cruz, went three wide around the final turn, and drew clear of the field to win by three lengths.
