"Red Rum (bay gelding, May 3, 1965–October 18, 1995. Sire: Quorum, dam: Mared) was a racehorse who achieved an unmatched historic treble when he won the Grand National in 1973, 1974 and 1977. He came second in 1975 and 1976." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Rum

RED RUM, no contest His first two wins of the Grand National he was ridden by Brian Fletcher who for some strange reason was then stood down to make way for Tommy Stack Stack rode him into second place in 75 , 76 and a third win in 1977. Res Rum is buried at the finishing post of the Grand national at Aintree and a statue in his honour has been place there. He was bought as a selling plater and trained by Ginger McCain in Liverpool he used to train on the sands. Red Rum never really shone in any other races but at Anfield he was King Flat racing I would imagine Nijinsky

Well Phar Lap or Amani. Now many, well to be honest, none of you, will have heard of Amani. He retired about 6 years ago, bowed tendon and his career earning were only $16,000.00 but to me he is the greatest horse ever foaled. He cam to me after retirement and became my riding horse. In all the trials and tribulations of leaving his racetrack career and learning a new one as a horse George, as he is now known as, has displayed a calm even temperament with only occasional OTTB hissy fits which have got less and less over time. So Amani aka George is the greatest racehorse you have ever lived followed closely by a bunch of other horses who have famous names and famous history who won more money and more races, but then I don't worry about them.
