A bay colt, Alysheba was sired by Alydar out of the dam, Bel Sheba. Trained by Jack Van Berg. In 1986 Alysheba had a good but less than spectacular two-year-old season in racing but came into his own the following year. Ridden by Chris McCarron, he won the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness Stakes but missed out on the U.S. Triple Crown when he finished fourth in the Belmont Stakes. He finished second to the four-year-old Ferdinand in the 1987 Breeders' Cup Classic, won the Grade 1 Stakes "Super Derby," and was named 1987's Champion Three Year Old.
As a four-year-old in 1988, Alysheba was dominant, winning several major Stakes races including the Santa Anita Handicap. He was retired to stud after winning the Breeders' Cup Classic. His performance earned him the Eclipse Award as 1988 Champion Older Male and the Eclipse Award for Horse of the Year. Of his 26 career races, the horse finished with a 11-8-2 record and earnings of ,679,242, a U.S. racing record at the time.
In 1993, Alysheba was inducted in the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame. In the Blood-Horse magazine ranking of the top 100 U.S. thoroughbred champions of the 20th Century, Alysheba was ranked #42.
Alysheba stood at stud at Lane's End Farm in Woodford County, Kentucky until 1999 when he was sold to a breeding operation in Saudi Arabia. He then returned to the US and the Kentucky Horse Park in 2008 where he was euthanized due to old age in March 2009. Alysheba sired eleven stakes winners of which his best was 1994 Canadian Horse of the Year Alywow. Other offspring of note was multiple stakes winner, Desert Waves.
