Never mind the name, he is a great horse.
I knew it. The evil juice were behind it...It was a plot by the Zionist entity the whole time...
I find it weird that most of the stories posted are about the ethnic origins of the owner rather than a horse has finally won the Triple Crown!!!
Congrats to A.P., his owner, his jockey and trainer - what a great race today.
They are lucky the track wasn’t parted. No irony involved.
“Publicly, Mr. Zayat alternately identifies as Muslim and Jewish.”

Yes, and an american now.
Certain slanted shades of Ben-Hur seem to come to mind.
Fantastic horse. Great moment. Love the name for a Triple Crown winner. So glad I got to see him do it. He looked relaxed and barely winded after the race. What a horse! Great long cruising stride. Maybe the ownership is God’s whimsy. I like the whole story.
That’s amazing, thanks for posting this!
THe owner’s son was kind of doing the honors on TV today, he did not seem to be orthodox, but he seemed like a good fellow. Very thrilled with the win, of course.
We didn’t make any money today but that horse dominated and it was fun to see.
A couple of years ago Zayat put American Pharoah up for auction. He didn’t get the price he wanted ($1 million), so he bought him back for around the minimum. He also owns AP’s sire and had done the same thing with him. So now he owns two very valuable horses that nobody wanted at bargain prices.
Man, that’s just delicious!
Holy,Puta!
I confess that I was actually rooting against that horse yesterday, because (1) I thought the owner was an Arab Muslim (from one of those wealthy countries on the Arabian peninsula) and (2) the name "American Pharaoh" turns me off. (I actually thought he might have been named for Obama. - LOL!)
Hmmm
Who he????

Smiling. Oooo, that’s cool. Did not know. Give Amer Phar a yarmulke! With ear holes! :)
Wasn’t sure about this horses endurance; but he did it. So I am glad he won. He even won on a muddy track in the Preakness, I think. I looked at his pedigree and am impressed. He has very good horses in there including Secretariat, himself, and he has a good trainer and jockey. Most of all his pedigree and trainer.
“According to JTA, a win was a triumphant stand for Ahmed Zayat, an Orthodox Jew from Egypt who has become one of the biggest forces in horse racing but has mostly tasted bitter defeat in recent years. “
The victory was really won by the fleas on its left flank, who have always driven American Pharaoh into a frenzy of running with their sharp bites. He therefore must partition ihis horse and its winnings with the poor fleas of the left flank. Besides, his victory was all a conspiracy. How could a Radnom with a losing track record ever manage to win a triple crown?
I’d read earlier that the horse was owned by a Dr. Daniel Jackson.
