Dixie Commander (foaled 2007 in Kentucky) is an American Thoroughbred racehorse bred by Diamond A Racing Corp. The colt is out of the winning Go for Gin mare Gin Running, whose dam is a half sister to 1997 American Horse of the Year, Favorite Trick. He is sired by Dixie Union, a great-grandson of Northern Dancer by his grandsire Dixieland Band. He is owned and trained by Steve Miyadi.
In 2010, Dixie Commander won the Turf Paradise Derby. Dixie Commander, who is not Triple Crown nominated, improved to two wins from six career starts and earnings of $58,060. He was the upset winner over 2-1 favorite Indian Firewater.
