Justify, who is a horse, won the Belmont Stakes on Saturday, the the New York Times reports. The victory means Justify is also a Triple Crown winner, having won the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness Stakes earlier in the year. Justify is only the 13th horse to win the Triple Crown in history, and only the second since 1978. Until American Pharoah won in 2015, people were arguing (in the pages of Slate, even) that no horse would ever win that big again, but American Pharoah showed the country it was still possible for a horse to win big, and now, three scant years later, a horse has won big again.
