'We All Believed Again': Looking Back At American Pharoah's Triple Crown

'We All Believed Again': Looking Back At American Pharoah's Triple Crown originally appeared on Paulick Report. Ten years ago, in late April, American Pharoah had achieved plenty in life, but the name didn't carry nearly the weight it does today. At the time, he had the Eclipse Award as champion 2-year-old male on his mantle, and he shipped into Churchill Downs in Louisville, Ky., as one of the favorites for the Kentucky Derby. A few weeks later, he became a household name as the 12th winner of the Triple Crown, ending a 37-year drought. Advertisement FanDuel TV takes a look at the magical 2015 Triple Crown season compiled by the Bob Baffert-trained colt, narrated by renowned racecaller Larry Collmus (see video above). To cement his place in the annals of racing history, American Pharoah locked down Horse of the Year honors after capping his season with a win in the Breeders' Cup Classic. A few years later, he entered the Hall of Fame on the first ballot. This story was originally reported by Paulick Report on Jun 4, 2025, where it first appeared.

Larry Collmus delivered another classic 2025 Kentucky Derby call for Sovereignty's win

Larry Collmus delivered another classic 2025 Kentucky Derby call for Sovereignty's win Larry Collmus is just so good at his job. It's really hard to think of many announcers who deliver in big moments as consistently as the famed horse race broadcaster, but somehow he always presents his races with ease and aplomb. Saturday's 151st running of the Kentucky Derby was no different. On an incredibly muddy track at Churchill Downs, Collmus was on his A+ game as Bob Baffert's Citizen Bull set an early pace off the rail that eventually ceded way to Sovereignty's dramatic nose-to-nose battle with Journalism down home stretch. As Sovereignty began to pull away with only a few lengths left, Collmus dropped the perfect line for the new Kentucky Derby champion. Sovereignty rules.
