On June 6, American Pharoah became the first horse to win racing's Triple Crown in 37 years.
It's just the 12th horse in history to win all of the three major racing events in a single year — the Kentucky Derby, Preakness Stakes, and Belmont Stakes.
But there's another part of this story you might not have heard about: the jockey.
American Pharoah's jockey, Victor Espinoza, donated all his winnings from the Belmont Stakes to charity.
All of it. Reportedly $80,000.
Wow.
