Halter worn in retirement by thoroughbred racehorse and 2006 Belmont Stakes winner Jazil. Though Jazil won just two races in his 11 career starts, he certainly made one count. After finishing in a dead heat for 4th at the '06 Kentucky Derby, he was entered into the Triple Crown's final leg at Belmont, where he claimed victory by 1 1/4 lengths. Moderate use exhibited to the halter includes wear to the leather straps, scratching to the nameplate, and wear to the buckles. Interesting and thorough provenance for this item starts with a certificate reading, "With Compliments - Nashwan Stud at Shadwell Farm" in Lexington, Kentucky, along with a signed handwritten note by Stallion Manager Kent Barnes stating that Jazil wore this halter in 2010. The final piece is an email chain in which Barnes responds to a fan by indicating not only that his signature was authentic, but that the absence of the Shadwell Farms mark on the halter plate is, in fact, correct, as there were a few such halters without the ID and he specifically remembered that Jazil had one.
