From a parade last year ✨

Diego (horse) was a good boy. His saddle sucked to be in for a 5km parade though.

Undersized, mean, and bought on the cheap, John Henry is one of horse racing's great legends, competing in the highest company until the advanced (for a racehorse) age of 9. He won on the lead, he came from behind, he won at the Grade 1 level on turf (his preferred surface) and dirt.

One of his most famous wins came in the inaugural Arlington Million in 1981, shown below, with an almost miraculous finish.

Retired at 10, he lived out the rest of his long life at the Kentucky Horse Park where he died at 32.
