Art Details

War Admiral was a legendary American Thoroughbred racehorse who dominated the racing scene in the late 1930s. Foaled in 1934, he was the son of the great Man o’ War and quickly proved himself to be a worthy heir to his sire’s legacy. Trained by George Conway and owned by Samuel D. Riddle, War Admiral achieved his greatest fame in 1937 when he won the American Triple Crown, capturing the Kentucky Derby, Preakness Stakes, and Belmont Stakes in impressive fashion. His Belmont Stakes victory was particularly notable, as he set a new track record despite injuring himself at the start of the race.
