About
Stop The Car is a 3yo horse from the United States trained by Brendan P. Walsh. He is by Maximum Security out of the mare Pussyfoot. He has earned two career wins, highlighted by a victory on 30 Nov 2025 at Churchill Downs, taking the $127,000 Race 5. The horse has been profitable for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 380% return on investment.
