America's Best Racing (ABR) was honored Sunday at the fourth annual EQUUS Film Festival in New York City as the Equestrian Series Award winner for its 2016 production of “Triple Crown Training: Where American Pharoah Learned to be a Racehorse.” The film festival highlights and rewards the diverse and creative efforts of storytellers of the horse world who pay artistic homage to the horse through films, documentaries, videos, commercials and shorts from around the globe.
The America's Best Racing series, which was presented and sponsored by Fasig-Tipton, chronicled the success story of the McKathan Brothers Training Center, where American Pharoah prepared in 2014 prior to his Triple Crown and Breeders' Cup Grand Slam victories in 2015–and highlighted the role that Marion County, Fla., plays in the development of young Thoroughbreds. The series was directed, produced and filmed by ABR Films and shot on location in Citra, Fla., at the McKathan Brothers Training Center.
