Amr Zedan, a Saudi businessman, made headlines by purchasing a two-year-old colt named Zedan for $10.5 million at the Ocala Breeders’ Sale in Florida, marking the second-highest price for a horse in North American history. The colt is trained by Bob Baffert, who has a prestigious record, including training two Triple Crown winners: American Pharoah and Justify. Zedan is out of Flightline, the 2022 Horse of the Year, and boasts a strong pedigree that has attracted significant attention. The bidding for Zedan was competitive, with Zedan outbidding several other prominent racing entities. Despite a challenging past, including the disqualification of his previous horse, Medina Spirit, from the 2021 Kentucky Derby, Zedan remains determined to secure a Derby win. He has surrounded himself with experienced professionals to mitigate risks in this high-stakes industry, understanding that the horse's worth is ultimately determined by its performance on the track. As Baffert monitors Zedan's training, both trainer and owner hope for a successful future in racing.
