Abstract

This chapter discusses the 2019 triple crown season beginning with the Florida Derby and some of the major races in the rest of the year. The year 2019 was much more complicated and there were three separate winners of the three Triple Crown races plus a very controversial disqualification in the Kentucky Derby and mixed results in the major summer and fall races with three year olds. War of Will, sired by Warfront, won the Preakness. Sir Winston, sired by Awesome Again, won the Belmont. Code of Honor won the Travers. He was sired by Noble Mission son of the legendary Gallieo, the top sire in Europe and sire of the undefeated Frankel, the top horse worldwide since Secretariat. Gallieo has a reputed stud fee of 650,000€. Vino Rosso by Curlin won the Breeders’ Cup Classic.
