Description:
Christon Jackson, a 24-year-old native of Lexington, was destined to become involved with horses, one breed or another. Jackson grew up surrounded by Arabians and Saddlebreds bred by his parents. From a young age, he was hands-on with horses and frequently in the saddle. The summer before entering the University of Kentucky, where he would graduate in 2023 with degrees in agricultural economics and business/managerial economics, he worked on a Kentucky breeding farm.
