Peanuts (foaled 1922 in Kentucky) was an American Thoroughbred racehorse who, despite being small in size, successfully competed in top-level events at distances from a mile to a mile and one-quarter. During his four years in racing for prominent New York owner Robert L. Gerry, "little Peanuts," as the press frequently labeled him, would reach elite status when he won a race in world record time.
