Yankee Affair (1982–1991) was an American multi-millionaire Thoroughbred racehorse. Foaled May 1, 1982 in Pennsylvania, he was purchased for $10,200 as a yearling by trainer Henry L. Carroll who owned one-third along with partners Jay Garsman and Martin Scheinman.

[1] He was raced under the nom de course Ju Ju Gen Stable, his three owners choosing the name as they referred to themselves as two Jews and a Gentile. [2] Yankee Affair began racing on dirt but proved best on the turf.

In 1987 the five-year-old Yankee Affair began showing his ability on the turf, winning three stakes races including the Laurel Turf Cup Stakes at Laurel Park Racecourse near Laurel, Maryland.[3] Among his wins in 1988, Yankee Affair equaled the world record for nine furlongs on turf with a time of 1:45 2/5 in winning the first division of the King Edward Gold Cup at Woodbine Racetrack in Toronto.[4] In 1989 his wins included three Grade I races: the United Nations Handicap, Man o' War Stakes and Turf Classic Handicap.[5] Yankee Affair finished second to Steinlen in the voting for the 1989 Eclipse Award for American Champion Male Turf Horse.

[6] In 1990, Yankee Affair won the Red Smith Handicap at New York's Belmont Park[7]

On November 6, 1990, Yankee Affair ran his last race at Aqueduct Racetrack in New York, finishing second in the Knickerbocker Handicap.[8] He retired as one of the leading money-earners in Thoroughbred racing history with a lifetime bankroll of $2,282,156. Yankee Affair died in 1991 from complications following surgery for a hairline fracture of the left pastern.[9]Yankee Affair was buried at Henry Carroll's Farm in St. Matthews!SC.
