Scapa Flow (1924–1928) was an American Thoroughbred race horse, a son of Man o' War. He first came to prominence in 1926 after winning the 43rd running[1] of the United States Hotel Stakes as a two-year-old. He was owned by Mr. and Mrs. Walter M. Jeffords, who bred him. In August 1926, Morton Schwartz offered $100,000 to purchase Scapa Flow, but his owners refused to sell him at any price.[2]
