'Harambe' to debut at Kentucky Derby track

‘Harambe’ will make his racing debut Wednesday at Churchill Downs, the famed home of the Kentucky Derby, located in Louisville.

It won’t be the deceased gorilla going head-to-head with thoroughbreds, but a 2-year-old colt owned by Muzeyyen Karabulut.

The horse is for sale and running in a maiden claiming race, meaning you can own ‘Harambe’ for $15,000, or the price of a Ford Mustang GT in 1990. With the 2-year-old for sale, one wonders if Harambe was close to owner Karabulut’s heart, or he’s a master at using social media to sell a horse.
