Americanrevolution earns New York-bred Horse of the Year honors

NYTB Press Release

Americanrevolution’s rapid development last season earned him New York-bred Horse of the Year and champion 3-year-old male honors during the New York Thoroughbred Breeders Inc.’s Annual Awards Ceremony on Friday, Aug. 12 at Fasig-Tipton’s Humphrey S. Finney Sales Pavilion.

Bred by Fred Hertrich and John Fielding and owned by CHC Inc. and WinStar Farm, Americanrevolution went from a maiden in June to a Grade 1 winner by December to lock up his championships.

The 2021 New York-bred Horse of the Year and divisional champions were chosen by a vote of New York turf writers, handicappers, photographers and television and radio hosts and analysts conducted by the NYTB. The Awards Ceremony returned to an in-person event for the first time since 2019.

A Commemorative Awards Program, written and produced by ST Publishing (the team behind The Saratoga Special and Thisishorseracing.com), will be mailed to all NYTB members and currently available on the Thisishorseracing.com website. Program[2].
