Description:

Best Pal (February 12, 1988 in Ramona, California - November 24, 1998 in Ramona, California) was a champion racehorse, who to this day holds the record for purses of any California-bred racehorse, earning his owners, the Golden Eagle Farm, US$5.6 million over his lifetime.

A descendant of Princequillo on both his sire's and dam's line, Best Pal won the first running of the Pacific Classic at Del Mar, and finished second in the 1991 Kentucky Derby as well as in the 1991 and 1995 Santa Anita Derby and won the California Gold Cup at Hollywood Park Racetrack.

Retired in 1996, Best Pal had a massive heart attack while on his way to a training track at Golden Eagle Farm. He was buried at the farm, and a large boulder with a plaque covers his grave.

Best Pal was inducted into the CTBA Hall Of Fame on February 5, 2007.
