High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Damascus (1964-1995) was a thoroughbred race horse sired by Sword Dancer (1959's Horse of the Year) out of Kerala (by My Babu) foaled at the Jonabell Farm in Lexington, Kentucky. Though he finished third in the 1967 Kentucky Derby (a high-strung horse, the humidity depleted him and the noise of the crowd spooked him; he was given a stable pony thereafter to calm him down), he won so many of the other big races the Preakness Stakes, the Belmont Stakes , the Jockey Club Gold Cup , the Wood Memorial, the Travers Stakes, the Dwyer Stakes (closing from 12 lengths back and spotting the runner up 16 pounds), the Woodward Stakes that he was 1967's Horse of the Year. And he did this in a year when not only the great Dr. Fager was racing, but so was Buckpasser. Considering that in Blood-Horse magazine's top 100 U.S. thoroughbred champions of the 20th Century, Buckpasser ranks 14th and Dr. Fager ranks 6th, this was no small feat. In a race many consider the "Race of the Century," Damascus won the 1967 Woodward by 10 lengths over both of these horses. Damascus himself ranks number 16 in the Blood Horse listing.
