troika

Couric could be a Today co-host, perhaps as part of a troika with Curry, who had already been offered the job.

We were driven over in a troika, or droshky, with one horse trotting in the middle and one on each side, in full gallop.

Death, with the grin on his fleshless face, is hurrying them along to it as fast as his troika can go.

We mounted our troika, the postillion shouted, and set off on a run.

The gate was wide open and out into the street, careering with all its bells jingling, came a troika.

Troika, troi′ka, n. a Russian vehicle having three horses abreast.
