Item Description
American Pharoah is an American thoroughbred racehorse who won the American Triple Crown and the Breeders' Club Classic in 2015. In winning all four races, he became the first horse to win the "Grand Slam" of American horse racing. He won the 2015 Eclipse Award for Horse of the Year and 2015 Champion three-year-old.
The horse is set apart from other race horses by his smooth and distinctively long stride. Trainer Bob Baffert has stated, "I've never had a horse that moves or travels over the ground like he does." The most unusual characteristic of American Pharoah during his two- and three-year-old seasons is his short tail—it was apparently chewed off by another horse. It is theorized that Mr. Z, a fellow competitor and Zayat-bred colt, may have been the culprit; the pair were kept together in Florida as younger horses. Baffert had a more colorful theory: "I think he was in the pasture one day and there was a mountain lion chasing him—that was the closest he could get ...."
The original photo of this true American champion is autographed by jockey Victor Espinosa.
