Description

This beautiful framed Giclée print (12 x 16) limited edition of the original painting by talented artist and former jockey Tom Chapman captures the great dual between Alydar and Affirmed.


 


Not since '78 has there been a Triple Crown winner, when Affirmed won it. Affirmed was the 11th horse ever to accomplish the feat of winning the prestigious three races. Trained by Laz Barrera, Affirmed was also Horse of the Year '78, and again won that award in '79. Known best for his rivalry with the great Alydar. Laz Barrera once was quoted as saying, "Affirmed was greater than Secretariat, Seattle Slew and all the rest, why? Because none of them had to face Alydar."
