Шаблон:More citations needed Шаблон:Infobox racehorse Dark Mirage (March 6, 1965 – July 9, 1969) was an American Hall of Fame Champion Thoroughbred racehorse.

Racing career

Dark Mirage was 15.1 hands high. In her 1967 campaign as a two-year-old, she had two minor wins in fifteen starts. As a three-year-old, she lost her first race, then (en route to winning nine in a row) became the first winner of the Filly Triple Crown, capturing all three races with ease. Her handlers decided to rest her for the remainder of the racing season. Dark Mirage's performance earned her the American Champion Three-Year-Old Filly honor.[1]

At age four, Dark Mirage raced only two times. She won her first race and, in the next, severely injured a fetlock joint. This injury ended her racing career and resulted in her death a few months later.[2]

Hall of fame

In 1974, Dark Mirage was inducted into the United States' National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame.
