'I Considered Him A Son': Louisiana Horsemen Mourn Death Of Trainer Jason Faul
The 53-year-old was reported missing on Sunday morning; his body was found on Monday in St. Landry Parish, and police are investigating.
Veteran Louisiana horseman and longtime Louisiana HBPA board member Glenn Delahoussaye was devastated this week when he learned of the death of his friend and former employee Jason Faul. The 53-year-old Faul took over Delahoussaye's business when the latter retired in 2024, and won two stakes races during his first year as a trainer.
"This is the close of a chapter that was just getting ready to blossom," Delahoussaye said. "This story has spanned three generations: my father (Junius Delahoussaye, a highly successful trainer in Louisiana), myself, and then there was Jason. Even though he was not blood, I considered him a son."
