Bayern held off the challenge of British challenger Toast of Ny to win the $5m (£3. 13m) Breeders' Cup Classic - America's most wealthy race.
Bayern, ridden by Martin Garcia as well as trained by Bob Baffert, led from the beginning at Santa Anita, California, and also tried to kick on turning from home.
Toast of New York, ridden simply by Jamie Spencer and trained simply by Jamie Osborne, just failed to get past the champion.
But Bayern needed to wait for a stewards' inquiry prior to a win was confirmed.
The particular horse, whose trainer Baffert is a 3-time Kentucky Derby winner, had swerved to his left out from the starting gate and collided with all the favourite Shared Belief, hampering his odds of maintaining his unbeaten run.
Kentucky Derby as well as Preakness Stakes winner California Chrome was 3rd, having filled that spot for a lot of the race.
The only European-trained champion on Saturday's second day on the event, known as the thoroughbred entire world championships, was the French opposition Karakontie, who beat fellow French hope Anodin and also the David Simcock-trained Trade Storm inside Breeders' Cup Mile.
This Richard Hannon-trained Toronado, who led in early stages, faded at the home stretch.
Racing on the dirt track for the 1st time, Toast of New York had been ridden expertly by Spencer, thirty four, who is due to retire at the conclusion of the year to follow a management role.
Owner Michael Buckley said that, "This has added me to tears, I so desperately wanted Jamie Spencer to win within this horse before he goes down into retirement.
"We can carry on dreaming since the Dubai World Cup is simply five months away but he is required to get there in good condition.
"This is an amazing horse and it is the toast of lots of things inside my heart. "
Osborne added that, "This is usually a huge emotional thing for personally, Michael and Jamie - he's got run his heart out and nearly pulled off the impossible.
"I'm incredibly proud of him and each of the team. Yes, it hurts into the future second. ".
