My mistake (from earlier, uh, and a different topic), American Pharoah has seven wins, one loss (5th in his first race), and the same jockey for all seven wins.

And his ancestors include Man o’ War, Secretariat, *and* Northern Dancer, as well as Bold Ruler (oldschool), and is a cousin to Affirmed.
