PG also won the 2001 Belmont and Preakness Stakes, was named Horse of the Year and Champion Three-Year-Old, and was inducted into the National Racing Museum and Hall of Fame in 2010. He passed away in 2023 after spending his retirement years at the Kentucky Horse Park, where he made plenty of great memories with all who visited him! 🐴💙
