Lot 58
American Wolf Albert Sabaths doctor urged him not to watch champion Alsab in the colts 3-year-old debut in the 1941 Bahamas Handicap at Hialeah. The doctor feared the excitement would be too much for the owner. It was probably for the best that Sabath stayed in the paddock as his champion Alsab faded and Alice Shermans American Wolf drew away with the victory. American Wolf was bred by Willis Sharpe Kilmer at his Court Manor Stud in New Market, Virginia. Kilmers yearling manager Stanley Shackelford selected him as one of the best Court Manor yearlings and sent him to the Saratoga sales. The colt was passed over by most bidders, and Selby Burch was able to purchase him for $1,200 for Mrs. Sherman. American Wolf raced to the age of 13, starting 112 times with 25 wins and 25 placings.
