Cool Summer Farm
Nestled in the picturesque countryside of Dagatan, Lipa City, Batangas, lies the sprawling Cool Summer Farm. This idyllic farm serves as the home and breeding ground for some of the finest thoroughbred racehorses in the country. It owes its success to the vision of the late Ambassador Eduardo Cojuangco Jr.
The Cool Summer Farm in Lipa, Batangas.
Known affectionately as "Danding," he was a renowned businessman and politician who served as the chairman and CEO of San Miguel Corporation, the largest food and beverage corporation in the Philippines and Southeast Asia. A good friend of Suarez & Sons Inc., Ambassador Cojuangco paved the way for bringing the trophies into reality and making the Cool Summer Farm a premiere horse racing destination in the country. Through Sir Danding, Suarez & Sons Inc. was commissioned to create these coveted trophies for horse racing competitions.

Cool Summer Farm open juvenile championship race
Of all the trophies we've created at Suarez & Sons Inc, the Cool Summer Farm Open Juvenile Championship Race stands out as one of the most prestigious and awe-inspiring. This upcoming race, whose schedule is still to be announced, represents the pinnacle of equine athleticism and sportsmanship, and the trophy we've crafted for it reflects that greatness.
Imagine a piece of art that captures the very essence of Cool Summer Farm, its lush fields and majestic horses engraved in stunning detail, paying homage to the land that gave birth to this magnificent race. It's not just a trophy - it's a tribute to the beauty and power of the equestrian community and a celebration of those who push themselves and their horses to the limits of excellence.
It took a team of expert craftsmen, designers, and metal artisans working tirelessly to bring every detail to life. From attaching the delicate leaves that adorn the trophy's surface to meticulously sculpting the side horses and horseshoes, every element was crafted with precision and care.
5th Cool Summer Farm Derby
The Cool Summer Farm Derby is a trophy that comes in three distinct designs, each one crafted to celebrate the different categories of winners in the competition.
The Owner's trophy is the grandest of them all, with a striking two-toned design that exudes elegance and sophistication. The Owner is the person who owns the horse and is responsible for its care and training.
The Jockey's trophy, meanwhile, is sleek and modern, with a shiny silver finish that reflects the intensity and speed of the race. The Jockey is the person who rides the horse during the race and is responsible for guiding the horse to victory.
Finally, the Trainer's trophy is a smaller but equally impressive version of the Jockey's, designed to honor the skill and expertise of the individuals who work tirelessly behind the scenes to prepare the horses for their moment in the spotlight. The Trainer is the person responsible for training the horse and getting it into peak physical condition for races.
Together, the owner, jockey, and trainer form a team that works tirelessly to achieve success on the track.
