Cigar
1990 Bay Thoroughbred Stallion
Palace Music X Solar Slew (Seattle Slew)
Breeder/Owner: Allen E. Paulson
On loan to the KY Horse Park from: Assicurazioni Generali S.P.A.
Trainer: William I. Mott
Accomplishments
Voted Horse of the Year 1995 and 1996
Voted Champion Older Horse 1995 and 1996
Tied record of 16 consecutive wins
Voted Racehorse of the Decade of the 1990s
Voted 18th best Racehorse of the 20th Century
Unbeaten season in 1995, winning 10 out of 10 races
All time leading money winner at retirement Nov. 9, 1996
Grade 1 wins include: Dubai World Cup, Breeder’s Cup Classic, Woodward Stakes (twice), Jockey Club Gold Cup, Oaklawn Handicap, Pimlico Special, Donn Handicap (twice), Gulfstream Park Handicap, NYRA Mile, and Hollywood Gold Cup
This shot was probably one of the most difficult that I took during my 2005 visit to the Kentucky Horse Park. I failed to see the Legends exhibition at its showing time, so I was forced to visit these horsey greats through the TINY mesh wiring of their stall doors. Cigar himself spent several moments nuzzling me through about an inch of space and I managed to kiss his soft nose before something caught his attention out his stall window. Luckily enough for me, I was able to jam my lens through the mesh just enough to catch this shot without the obscurity of metal all in the way.
