Carry Back (1958-1983) was an American Hall of Fame Thoroughbred racehorse with a less than stellar pedigree but who nonetheless won many important graded stakes races including the 1961 Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes. In the Belmont Stakes, Carry Back finished seventh in a nine-horse field, 14 lengths behind winner Sherluck, whom he had soundly beaten in the first two U.S. Triple Crown races.
