You're probably after a horse from America, but in Australia there's a mare called Black Caviar. 20 runs, unbeatean.

The Kentucky Oaks race covers 1 1/8 miles.

Secretatriat won $ 155,050 for the kentucky Derby, $129,900 for the Preakness, and $ 90,120 for the belmont. This comes to a total of $375,070 for all three races.

This can't be answered unless you give a list of horses.

NO, people also like to race Quarter horse, Mules, Arabs and other breeds.

No, most common race horses are thoroughbreds, but Quarter horses have also been known to do well. (There are many other breeds that race to.)

Plumpton, Huntingdon, goodwood, Sligo, Ludlow

Currently just twelve horses are allowed.

Sir Barton

Sir Barton became the first American Triple Crown winner in 1919, just about the time when it was becoming recognised as a series of races worth winning. He won the Kentucky Derby as a maiden (never winning a race before) and also won the Preakness just four days later. Then, he won another stakes race before winning the Belmont Stakes, which was at the distance of 1 3/8th miles then. He was amazing horse, though ran second to the brilliant 3year-old Man O'War the following year in a match race. Though, it is said he was suffering from hoof soreness at the time.

Just as the starting bell sounded and the race began, Ruffian hit her shoulder extremely hard on the starting gate. She recovered quickly, but was obviously in pain and leaning more heavily on her right foreleg compensating for the pain. The first quarter-mile (402 m) was run in a blazing 22 1/5 seconds, with Ruffian ahead by a nose. Little more than a 1 furlong (201 m) later, Ruffian was in front by half a length when both sesamoid bones in her right foreleg snapped. Vasquez tried to pull her up, but the filly wouldn't stop. She kept on running, pulverizing her sesamoids, ripping the skin of her fetlock as the bones burst through, driving the open wound into the sting sand of the Belmont track, tearing her ligaments, until her hoof was flopping uselessly, bent up like the tip of a ski. She was known for her incredible love of running and unwillingness to lose. She had never before been behind in a race. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruffian_(horse) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fsi_ixx4pAY

A t-shirt with NASCAR Rocks! Written is glow in the dark letters. Jeans are pretty good too as they are easy to put out if they catch on fire. Rules for the pits are, shirt with at least short sleeves, (no tank-tops) long pants, no open toed shoes, you must be 18 yrs. old, (drivers, crew chiefs, owners, etc., familes are exempt from these rules, if you see children in the pits they are family of the aforementioned) you might bring some sun-block, bad sunburnes are common.

Thoroughbred horses are found on farms throughout Kentucky. There are also found in every state in the United States and in other countries. They live wherever an owner who loves thoroughbred horses lives.

This is a matter subject to much debate.

The top two horses of the century, as named by "The Blood Horse," were Man O'War and Secretariat. Both were excellent racehorses; Man O'War was only defeated once, and that was very narrowly, after what was possibly the worst race in history, while Secretariat managed to set records in the Kentucky Derby and Belmont Stakes which still stand, and managed the incredible accomplishments of winning the awards for Three Year Old of the Year, Turf Male of the Year, and Horse of the Year, all in the same year - not to mention he also won Two Year Old of the Year and Horse of the Year together, the first time any two-year-old won Horse of the Year honors.

The greatest filly of all time was most likely Ruffian. Racing in 1974 and 1975, she had ten starts, taking an immediate lead and setting or tying records as she won them all. Her tragic eleventh race is a story that still captures people even today; there was a made-for-TV movie about her in 2007.

Currently the tallest competing male jockey is Richard Hughes from the UK who stands at 5'10"

However, Manute Bol, a former basketball player who stands at 7'7", recently did a "stint" as a jockey for a charity event.

Also, the current tallest female jockey is Louise Moeller from Denmark at 6'1", but she only weighs in at 112 lbs! that's hardly a heavy load for a horse.

Why is race run on grass

The first gray horse to win the Kentucky Derby was Determine in 1954.

Belmont Futurity Stakes was created in 1888.
