Honor Code (foaled March 1, 2011) is a Thoroughbred racehorse bred in Kentucky, USA. He was sired by A.P. Indy son of the Triple Crown winner Seattle Slew and out of mare Weekend Surprise, who was sired by another Triple Crown winner: Secretariat.
Honor Code's 2013 two-year-old debut saw him win from 22 lengths behind at Saratoga Race Course.
He won the 2013 Remsen Stakes[1] and was considered a favorite for the 2014 Kentucky Derby, but an injury in March 2014 took him out of contention.[2]
At two, he finished second in the 2013 Champagne Stakes.
Sidelined for much of 2014 by a leg injury, he returned to racing in November 2014 to win a 6 1/2 furlong allowance race/optional claiming race at Aqueduct Race Track.
In March, 2015, he returned to graded stakes racing by taking the Gulfstream Park Handicap running against the favorite, Private Zone who had won the 2014 Grade I Cigar Mile Handicap.
