All told, Cogburn finished first or second in 11 of 16 lifetime starts and banked $2,422,630 racing for Clark Brewster, William and Corinne Heiligbrodt, and trainer Steve Asmussen.

Cogburn will stand the 2026 season at Winstar Farm, near Versailles, Ky., for an advertised fee of $25,000, stands and nurses.
