He was the horse of a generation becoming the 12th in history to win the American triple crown.

After his dominant Breeders Cup success he was retired to stand at Coolmore in north America and Australia for the southern hemisphere breeding season.

He is the first triple crown winner to stand in Australia and a great addition and boost to the local scene highlighting the importance of racing in this country.

    In Japan, Cafe Pharaoh, a son of American Pharaoh, won the February Stakes GⅠ for second year in a row.
  • I love the way he poses for his photos. He is such an incredibly beautiful animal with a magnificent personality! I hope he is happy and being taken care of like the champion he is.

    My horse Deification is brother to Pioneer of the Nile. I always tell him of his famous relatives as I ride him out in the Nevada desert now as he is my ranch horse now. His mother is Adoration.

    It is a very generous gift to bring this magnificent stallion to Australia. It is a big trip with lots of risks to any horses health. Such devotion to good breeding is such a thankful gift to the industry.

    Lots of contenders, but not many of these animals have it in them to win the Triple Crown. 37 years between Affirmed in 1978 and AP in 2015.

    He Looks Like a Billion Bucks and is Treated Like a King Worldwide....Sure its About Money But He is Also a Rockstar
  • A surprise no doubt. However, this is the ultimate addition to Aussie stock & racing. Is this stay for the breeding season or long term?
  • @equine2020
    Pray his fate doesn't end as Ferdinand. A derby winner. He went to Japan. Ended up slaughtered. A sad ending. Reason for " Old Friends Retirement " farm. Michael Bowen tries saving as many thoroughbreds he can. The horse industry doesnt tell the ugly side of the the horse world.
  • @baytown7951
    Somebody fill me in. Here in the U.S. we are still seeing offspring from American Pharoah. Is he in Australia for good or just as a shuttle sire?
  • I pray to God you have America Pharoah’s best interest at heart! He has made millions of dollars, please let him retire and no more racing! Please don’t let him end up in a slaughterhouse like so many other legend race horses!!!! I will be following his journey

    Give him Winx. I know she is recovering from absorbing a foal, but another try to get her in foal. Like they say, breed the best to the best and hope for the best.
