Shared Belief, whose victory in the $1 million TVG Pacific Classic extended his undefeated record to 6-0, was a unanimous choice as Horse of the Meeting and top 3-year-old by vote of the Del Mar media.

Owned by Jungle Racing LLC of nationally syndicated sports talk radio/TV personality Jim Rome and partners, trained by Jerry Hollendorfer and ridden by Mike Smith, Shared Belief passed defending race champion Game On Dude in the stretch and went on to a 2 3/4-length victory to become the fifth 3-year-old to defeat elders in Del Mar’s signature event.

Tom’s Tribute was also voted best in two categories. The 4-year-old chestnut colt, owned by the Braly Family Trust, trained by Jim Cassidy and ridden by Mike Smith, won the Grade I $300,000 Eddie Read Stakes and the Grade II $250,000 Del Mar Mile to secure the vote in both the top grass horse and top older horse categories.

Joining Shared Belief as other unanimous winners were Goldencents, runner-up in the Bing Crosby Stakes and winner of the Pat O’Brien,  in the sprint category and Del Mar Debutante winner Sunset Glow as the top 2-year-old filly.

Four-year-old filly Iotapa, who took the Clement L. Hirsch Stakes, garnered honors in the older filly or mare division and Del Mar Oaks champion Personal Diary was voted the top 3-year-old filly.

American Pharoah, who prevailed in the meeting’s traditional closing day featured Del Mar Futurity, was  voted the top 2-year-old.
