Silver Spoon (horse)

Silver Spoon (March 6, 1956 - January 1978) was a multiple stakes winning American Thoroughbred race horse.

Silver Spoon was a big chestnut filly with four white stockings, standing 16 hands one inch tall, and weighing 1,135 pounds.

With her ears pricked, she romped home by two and a half lengths against that year's eventual Preakness Stakes winner, Royal Orbit.

The only filly to start in the race between the years 1945 to 1980, she came in a respectable fifth, three and a half lengths behind the winner, Tomy Lee.

A few months later, back on the West Coast, she soundly beat Tomy Lee in the Cinema Handicap.
