George Smith (horse)

George Smith (foaled April 30, 1913, in Kentucky) was an American Thoroughbred racehorse and was the winner of the 1916 Kentucky Derby. He was a black colt by the imported British stallion Out of Reach and out of the imported British mare Consuelo II. His grandsire, Persimmon, was a son of the great English racer and sire St. Simon.〔(George Smith Pedigree and Racing Stats )〕
George Smith was named after noted turfman George E. Smith, also known as "Pittsburg Phill", who was once an owner of the colt's dam.〔(NY Times. May 23, 1915 )〕 The horse was bred by Fred Forsythe and Jack Chinn and was foaled at their Fountain Blue Farm in Harrodsburg, Kentucky. George Smith was purchased as a yearling for $1,600 by Ed Mcbride, who trained him as a yearling and raced him as a two-year-old. George Smith was a promising two-year-old, winning many major stakes races, including the Victoria Stakes at Old Woodbine Race Course in Toronto.〔("History of the Kentucky Derby, 1875-1921" )〕 He was then bought by noted Eastern horseman John Sanford for $22,500 as a two-year-old.〔(NY Times, May 14, 1916 )〕
The 1916 Kentucky Derby was run on a clear day with a field of 9 horses. George Smith was ridden by American Racing Hall of Fame jockey Johnny Loftus and was the clear contender of the race from the start. The only competition for the win came from Star Hawk, who lost the race by a neck after a rally in the home stretch.^{〕 By the following year, George Smith was in the possession of the U.S. Army Remount Service, where he sired military horses for his remaining years.〔(''Washington Post''. Apr. 17, 1927 )〕
