In horseracing's greatest rivalry, Affirmed and Alydar squared off against each other on 10 different occasions, with Alydar winning three times. One of those victories occurred in the 1977 Champagne Stakes, the oldest race of its kind in the United States with a history dating back to 1867. A memento of that triumph, this jewelry box measures 6x3.25x3.50" with some tarnish and light scratching and is stamped "Tiffany & Co Sterling" on the bottom. The engraving reads, "New York Racing Association The Champagne Belmont 1977 Won by Calumet Farm's Alydar Jockey Jorge Velasquez." Comes with LOA from Jorge Velasquez.
