The only horse I can name that won the Triple Crown is Secretariat, but I know he wasn't the last to have won it. I just know it was a big deal when he won, because no horse had won the triple crown in over 20 years when he won -- and he set records doing so that still stand today. It has now been over 30 years since a horse has won the Triple Crown.

Sorry about that Orlok. I'm not very good and either answering or coming up with quizzes.

You are correct Dathi in that is has been over 30 years since the Triple Crown was won. You don't need to know the name of the last winner, etc. Knowing this could be a very difficult quiz all I am really looking for is the year the Triple Crown was last won.

Not a criticism, and nothing wrong with the question. Just letting you know I'm here and would have a go if I could. It's difficult choosing topics that won't exclude someone, somewhere.

And since it's just a date, I can take a guess too .

1975?

That was the main reason I picked the date...to try and give everyone a better chance. The rest was just for bonus (and only because I've seen so many others do so...I'm such a follower )

You are in the correct decade but not the right year.

I know it was the late 70's, and resisting the urge to Google, I'm going to guess 1979.

Not 1979 (No was too short)

I'm not orlok, but you have nothing to apologize for! This is a perfectly good quiz and it's hard to be on the spot.

The year is correct but no bonus points.

Seattle Slew was the Triple Crown winner in 1977.

For the rest of the info:

Name: Affirmed
Jockey: Steve Cauthen
Trainer: Lazaro S. Barrera
Owner: Harbor View Farm

So I guess you can either post a new question or wait for Sneakysnake (I think it is actually Sneaky's turn).

I just wanted to agree. Everyone here has such a wide range of knowledge, so I like seeing a quiz that gives us all a little trouble.

Absolutely! I love the huge range of quizzes we get. And I know the "deer in headlights" feeling.
