Afleet Alex Horseshoe Plaque with Certificate of Authenticity from Gainesway Farm certifying the horseshoes were worn by the great Afleet Alex in 2024. Third in the 2005 Kentucky Derby and winner of the 2005 Preakness and Belmont Stakes. Afleet Alex almost fell in the Preakness Stakes but remarkably recovered after picking himself up literally off of his knees and going on to win the race. One of the most courageous displays of athletic ability by Afleet Alex and his jockey Jeremy Rose. This is a beautiful item to display on your wall or office of a true thoroughbred champion.

Thank you Gainesway.

All proceeds from the sale of if this item will help our organization continue our mission of helping thoroughbreds in need.
