General Information
Some people consider Man O'War the greatest race horse of all time
His sire was the rough and tough, extremely competive and high spirited Fair Play. Fair Play was out of the immortal Hastings. His dam was the gentle natured Mahuba. It was hoped that the foal would end up with a manageable gentleness.
One of his offspring War Admiral, was the fourth winner of the Triple Crown of Racing
When he died his funeral was broadcast on all three major radio networks
Note:Blue equals male (stallion) Red equals female (mare)
