The Triple Crown: a free online word search

A triple crown word search, free and printable, from the roses of Churchill Downs to the dirt of Belmont Park. No sign-up needed.

About The Triple Crown

Every spring the best three-year-old thoroughbreds in the country get five weeks to prove themselves. It starts the first Saturday in May in Louisville, moves to Baltimore two weeks later, and finishes in Elmont, New York, in early June. Each race has its own flower and its own crowd, and only a handful of horses have ever won all three.

How to play

  1. 1
    Find a word.Tap its first letter, then tap along to its last. The trail fills in and finishes itself when it spells a word. Or press the first letter and drag.
  2. 2
    Words run in straight lines.Across and down, and on the harder difficulties diagonally and backwards.
  3. 3
    It marks itself.Each word you find takes on its own soft color on the grid and is crossed off the list.
  4. 4
    Choose a difficulty.The level you pick sets those directions and how much the word list helps, never the grid size. Tap the A buttons at the top to enlarge the letters, or pinch the grid.
