Yes, he won the duel with Alexander Hamilton. However, he could never win "political duel" (aka the "big one") for offices he coveted - presidency of United States and governorship of New York.
Trying to mix political history and horse racing methaphorically is slippery slope. I may have bid and hung on this one!
