Silver Max 's first race was on July 31, 2011, at Saratoga, where he came in second. He did not pick up his first win until January 13, 2012, at Gulfstream Park.[1]

He picked up a win at the Oliver Stakes on June 13, then capped off the streak with a win at the 2012 Commonwealth Derby on July 21.[1][3]
His next graded race win came a year later as he won the Oceanport Stakes on July 28, 2013. Silver Max then won the Bernard Baruch Handicap on August 31, 2013.[1] Then on October 5, 2013, he won the biggest race of his career when he captured his first Grade-1 win - the Shadwell Turf Mile Stakes.[1]
