The Last Three Triple Crown Winners
A Triple Crown is the act of winning or completing the three most important, difficult, or prestigious events, feats, or prizes in a given field. Originating in England in the mid-19th century in the sport of horse racing, it has spread to other competitive endeavors.
Sports[edit]
American Pharoah lost his first start before breaking his maiden in a Grade 1 race and winning eight consecutive races. Like six of the last seven Triple Crown winners, the colt had been named 2-year-old champion in 2014. He wrapped up his career with a win in the Breeders' Cup Classic against older horses and was later named Horse of the Year. Matched a career-best 83 Beyer last out in a dominant 11 3/4-length score in the $100,000 Gander, a one-turn mile for New York-bred sophomores on Valentine’s Day. After three heroic performances, Wales are the Triple Crown winners! They're going to say it's been on our side for the last three matches but look you've got to be in games to win them.
