SHERIFF JOE Hats

On June 10, 2023, former Maricopa County, Arizona Sheriff, Joe Arpaio, celebrated his 91^st birthday party early at the Italian American club with over 400 friends and supporters attending. He was born on June 14^th, 1932. Sheriff Arpaio was presented with a gift (to have a horse with a famous pedigree named after him, “Sheriff Joe”). The horse’s owner is Mark Breen.

Sheriff Joe the racehorse, born February 16, 2021, comes from a notable lineage of champions. His sire, Curlin, is consider one of the greatest sires of all time. Sheriffs Joe’s bloodline includes triple crown champions, Secretariat and Seattle Slew. These bloodlines carry a legacy of speed, stamina, and exceptional performance on the racetrack.

With such a remarkable lineage, “Sheriff Joe” the horse (just like his namesake, Sheriff Joe Arpaio), has a bright future. This summer “Sheriff Joe” will embark on his racing career, with the Kentucky Derby his ultimate goal. Arpaio says, “Some people think I am riding into the sunset, but like this horse, I am still in the winner’s circle and back in the saddle again.”
