American Pharoah - Haskell Invitational (Gr.1)

[@ProjectMathesar]

The way American Pharoah just breezes by Competitive Edge at the far turn it was almost like he said "Oh have we been racing this whole time? That's cute." And if Victor hadn't eased up on him at the end American Pharoah probably would've shattered every Haskell race record too. Happy to have been there to see it in person!

What a brilliant flowing action AP had.

[@rcpsammy7186]

That acceleration was insane.

[@louisburch1930]

most impressive win i think of his career... absolute brilliance

[@kevinkilduff2064]

This race was greatness personified. Nothing but a gallop for AP against a sold field. Not sure I have ever seen a horse win more easily at this level. He could have run 1:45 with any more effort. AP , one of the all-time greats.

[@tspeederp1007]

I love that victor said come on and in the home stretch he just hold him and he could beat the world record if victor let him to

[@paravecchiavince9685]

He just toyed with that other horse...then just ran past him like, “you really thought you had a chance, buddy??”

[@shannonblanks5868]

And that same exact horse that finished second, beat him in the Travers

[@billsheets1]

A couple more links and Keen Ice had him

That horse has it...bob can’t help him!

[@GBMikee]

Wow that was insane. I remember watching this race live while I was at the track in Saratoga. Not only did victor not go to the whip he had him under a tight hold the entire stretch lol. What a horse.

I love this horse! He has my heart❤️❤️🙏🙏

[@kathleenboyle8652]

Wonder what happened to the Gray horse ?

[@billsheets1]

Keen Ice almost had him

[@rhondablack8079]

Only because Victor was holding AP back . AP did not need to be in the Travers. He could have just ridden in the Breeders Cup Classice

[@billsheets1]

@@rhondablack8079 bull crap! He got rundown because he was gassed! Nobody enters a race with intentions of holding back to lose.

[@Struwwel2]

Nah. Sure, Keen Ice charged hard at the end, but he only closed that much ground because AP eased off his pace.

[@rhondablack8079]

Victor was holding him back on purpose
