COMBAT spent his entire career in the shadows of his outstanding stable-mate Tudor Minstrel, but still retired unbeaten in 9 starts including the 1947 Sussex Stakes (the final year for trainer Fred Darling at Beckhampton). At stud, he sired Aggressor & US stakes winner Combustion
JIMMY REPIN proved himself a thoroughly good miler during the 1968/69 seasons, winning the Hungerford stakes, Wills Mile, Sussex, Hungerford (again), Prix Perth & Queen Elizabeth II Stakes. Retiring to stud in 1970, he sired the Queen's Joking Apart, winner of the Jersey Stakes.
While Lord Derby's breeding and racing in England was a personal affair, he joined Ogden Mills in a French stable partnership. This transatlantic union became the leading owner in France in 1928 when their great horse KANTAR won the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe.
It is with great sadness that we confirm the passing of Arrogate, four-time Gr.1 winner, Eclipse Champion 3YO, twice the World's Best Racehorse and the richest North American racehorse in history, as well as immensely promising young sire - bit.ly/3dwvatq
PERSIMMON, winner of the 1896 Derby, St Leger, 1897 Eclipse stakes & Gold Cup. Trainer Richard Marsh wrote in his biography: 'A grander horse than Persimmon was as a 4yo, I never beheld. I would not have feared St Frusquin then, nor the greatest horse that ever walked the turf'.
BOLKONSKI showed his shock 33/1 defeat of Grundy in the 2000 Guineas was no fluke when winning the St James's Palace Stakes at Royal Ascot. He settled the issue in a matter of strides, to defeat Royal Manacle (picture), before going on to beat Rose Bowl in the Sussex Stakes.
THOR lived up to his name by possessing a thunderous temper. Winner of the 1933 French Derby, he was seized by the Nazis during World War II, reputedly killing two soldiers in the process. Sold to the National Stud after the War, Thor was destroyed after severely mauling a groom.
OASIS DREAM'S victory in the 2003 July Cup (pictured) was the first in a Group 1 sprint by a champion 2yo since the Pattern System was introduced in 1971...he followed-up with a 133 Timefigure in the 'Nunthorpe', better than any sprinter had managed in more than a decade.
JALMOOD, pictured defeating the non-staying Mr Flurocarbon in the 1982 Lingfield Derby Trial, represented the first crop of Blushing Groom...an outstanding crop which included 3 Grade 1 winners in the USA, an Italian Classic winner & Shy Groom (New York Derby).
When Boussac's home-bred stallion LABUS, first transferred to the French National Stud, he was so little regarded, he spent 2 years as a sire of saddle horses at a fee of £50...the subsequent successes of his Arc winner Akiyda & the top-class Akarad, saw his fee rise ten-fold.
Lord Wavertree out hunting in the early 1900's. A fine horseman, he won the House of Commons point-to-point at Epping in 1910 and possessed great knowledge of bloodstock breeding. As an owner, Lord Wavertree won 4 English classics with Cherry Lass (×2), Witch Elm & Night Hawk.
Édouard Rothschild with jockey Mathew McGee. Following the fall of France in 1940, the leading stallions belonging to Rothschild were seized at the family's Haras de Meautry and taken to Germany. These included Arc winner Brantome & the top French 3yo of 1937, Eclair au Chocolat.
PHALARIS was England's leading sprinter in 1917. Crossed to Lord Derby's stoutly-bred mares, he provided an injection of speed that rejuvenated Lord Derby's breeding programme...Phalaris went on to established himself as perhaps the most influential sire of them all.
Who remembers the mighty Arrogate winning the 2017 renewal? #DubaiWorldCup #RacingTVFlashback
Although grandsons & great-grandsons of Northern Dancer have accounted for all 3 legs of the US Triple Crown, he himself failed to sire a winner...his only Kentucky Derby runner was GIBOULEE in 1977. Winner of the Manitoba Derby, he finished 7th to Seattle Slew at Churchill Downs
TREDENNIS was out of 1000 Guineas winner St Marguerite (who died the day after she foaled him) A complete failure on the track, Tredennis began stud life at a fee of £5, but at the time of his death had sired the winners of 480 races worth £147,000.
TETRATEMA, holds the biggest margin of superiority in the history of the Free Handicap (12lbs) & is one of only 4 British-trained horses in the last 100 years to be champion at the ages of 2, 3 & 4 years (alongside Fairway, Abernant & Frankel). *In 1929 he became champion sire.
Captain Henry Greer was the first director of the Irish National Stud at Tully, Co Kildare. The foundation of his own racing fortunes came when he bought Gallinule for £1,000. Gallinule became twice champion sire with 4 Classic winners, including the legendary Pretty Polly.
He’s all power!👇👇👇 RAJASINGHE, a record-breaking, Royal Ascot Gr.2 winning two-year-old by sire of sires CHOISIR! First foals are hitting the ground!🙌 📞Phone today to discuss your mare!! #RoyalAscot #Speed
