all thoroughbreds stem from three stallions brought to england in the late 17th century from the battlefields of europe and arabia . these ' origin stallions ' - the byerley turk , the darley arabian and the godolphin arabian - stand at the head of the family tree of every thoroughbred that has ever raced , and the distant cousins who contest races today bear the marks of three centuries of attempts at improvement by selective breeding .
not very many of you folks out there know all about texas history . here’s some of the more “colorful” moments in the archives of this great state , and some of her true characters . laura bush , an amateur genealogical researcher , discovered that her husband’s great - great uncle , chadsworth bush , a fellow lacking in character , was hanged for horse stealing and train robbery in texas in 1889 .
as a two - year - old in 2012 , she won three of her five races including the breeders ' cup juvenile fillies and was voted american champion two - year - old filly . in the following season , she won five of her seven races , including the breeders ' cup distaff . with the breeders ' cup win , she became the first horse to win both the breeders ' cup juvenile fillies and the distaff in consecutive years , and concluded her three - year old season by being named american champion three - year - old filly . after a four - year - old season plagued by injuries and illness , with a single graded stakes win in three attempts , she returned to form as a five - year - old with multiple stakes wins , becoming the first filly or mare to win the pacific classic and was voted american champion older dirt female horse . in doing so , she became the first horse since 1976 , male or female , to win grade 1 stakes races at age 2 , 3 , 4 , and 5 . in 2016 , she extended this achievement by winning the grade i vanity stakes , and in doing so tied the record of john henry for winning a grade i race five years in a row . she closed out her career winning the 2016 breeders ' cup distaff in a dramatic stretch run , prevailing by a scant nose over the songbird . she received her second eclipse award as champion older dirt female horse at the end of the year and retired having tied goldikova as one of only two horses to have ever won three breeders ' cup championships .
christopher has a ph . d . in astronomy from the university of california , los angeles . after eight years of searching for exoplanets , probing distant galaxies and exploring comets , chris realized he enjoyed talking about astronomy a lot more than actually doing it . after being awarded a 2013 aaas mass media fellowship to write for scientific american , he left a research career at the u . s . naval observatory to pursue a new life writing about anything and everything within the local cosmological horizon . since 2014 , he ' s been working with science news .
shortly after four this afternoon , 20 gleaming thoroughbreds will burst from the starting stalls on epsom downs and attempt to become the 224th winner of the derby , arguably the most prestigious horse race of all . for the victorious jockey , it may be a career - defining moment , earning him the respect of his peers and a welcome increase in fees . for the winning three - year - old , the prize is less tangible , though arguably more valuable in the long term : it will have fulfilled a promise established before it was born and secured its owner a fortune in the process . while the winner ' s cheque of more than £700 , 000 will doubtless come in handy , it is loose change compared with the many millions today ' s winning horse will earn if it goes on to sire future champions at stud .
the airlie bred almaarad won several top races including the aral pokal group 1 , hardwicke stakes group 2 , general accident jockey club stakes group 2 , grand prix de deauville and curragh cup . he was also the winner of the cox plate group 1 in australia where he was the winner of three races from four starts . he was the highest rated horse in the austalia / new zealand classifications for 1989 - 1990 .
on december 5 , polar falcon was euthanised at rossdales and partners ' veterinary clinic in newmarket following a short illness believed to be the result of a tumour in his lung . [ 15 ] the cheveley park stud ' s director , chris richardson , described him as
a kind horse with an immense character , who gave us many many magical moments both on the racecourse and through his progeny
. [ 16 ]
away from the aht labs , the breeding business proceeds on an almost industrial scale , at stud farms expert in producing perhaps the most highly specialised animals in the history of domestication . the horse bred for flat racing has two purposes - to run like the wind and to produce equally fleet - footed progeny . it is the animal equivalent of a formula one car , designed to run a finite number of times over finite distances .
beholder is a bay mare with no white markings , other than two small speck of white on her forehead . [ 3 ] [ 4 ] she was bred by fred mitchell ' s clarkland farm in lexington , kentucky . [ 1 ] she was sired by henny hughes , a sprinter whose biggest wins came in the king ' s bishop stakes and vosburgh stakes in 2006 . [ 5 ] beholder ' s dam , leslie ' s lady , won five races out of 28 starts , including the listed hoosier debutante stakes in 1998 , and was purchased by mitchell in 2006 for $ 100 , 000 . leslie ' s lady was a descendant of the broodmare last bird , making her a distant relative of the kentucky derby winner i ' ll have another . [ 6 ] beholder ' s older half - brother , into mischief ( sired by harlan ' s holiday ) , won the 2007 cashcall futurity and the 2008 damascus stakes , and her younger half - brother mendelssohn won the 2017 breeders ' cup juvenile turf and the 2018 uae derby . leslie ' s lady was named the 2016 kentucky broodmare of the year . [ 7 ] [ 8 ]
o’brien was back in the winners’ enclosure again in 2009 as rip van winkle finally came right with a classy victory over paco boy . rip van winkle had gone up against the superstar sea the stars in his three previous starts and had given the great horse most to think about in the coral eclipse stakes , so his sussex stakes victory was well merited . he later followed up with a win in the queen elizabeth iind stakes at ascot .
winning favourite , the french - bred and trained marchand d’or , has an intriguing pedigree for a horse who is clearly one of europe ' s elite sprinters . the july cup was the five - year - old’s sixth win from 1000m to 1400m in 10 career starts . he finished fourth in the july cup last year and his victories include the g1 prix maurice de gheest at deauville , twice , and the g3 prix de la porte maillot at longchamp , twice .
last year , allen told the house of lords select committee on animals in scientific procedures that ai and cloning were to be welcomed :
there are groups actively trying it [ cloning ] in other parts of the world . there is quite a race on between us . there are a number of reasons to want to clone horses . there are individual wealthy people who want to reproduce their favourite horse , and if that produces funds for research , then i say jolly good . . . i think the things that can be learned from a cloned animal are tremendous , in a horse particularly things like behaviour and performance . . . cloning will come in , it should come in , and the sooner we can do it , the better .
a fortnight ago , after scientists at the university of idaho successfully cloned a champion racing mule - the world ' s first equine clone - allen described himself as
very cheesed
and
jealous as hell
.
any stud is dependent on a successful stallion but the best ones are all with coolmore and darley ,
says littlewort .
they have an iron grip as they control not only the good stallions now , but they are likely to have a claim on the best stud horses of the future , too . the consequence is that , when a decent horse comes on the market , a lot of us are after it and the prices can rise . and only one in 10 makes money .
excellent jockey and was lucky to be at warwick one day when his mount just held on in a driving finish . it was at that point when i first saw a jockey virtually carry his horse over the line . sad to hear of his passing , even sadder to hear of his battle with the demon drink , but he leaves me with many happy memories none more so than being at paddockside to cheer home his last st leger win on silver patriach . . . . was it really 18 years ago : - 0
by 55 million years ago , the first members of the horse family , the dog - sized hyracotherium , were scampering through the forests that covered north america . for more than half their history , most horses remained small , forest browsers . but changing climate conditions allowed grasslands to expand , and about 20 million years ago , many new species rapidly evolved . some - - but not all - - became larger and had the familiar hooves and grazing diets that we associate with horses today . only these species survived to the present , but in the past , small and large species lived side by side .
as she aged , her behavior improved , and she began to behave like a seasoned veteran . [ 14 ] mandella gave credit to the horse :
i’d say she brought me along . i haven‘t brought her along . i’ve just been along for the ride .
[ 13 ] by her six - year - old season , following her 17th career win , which was also her sixth consecutive victory , [ 2 ] mandella said of beholder ,
good horses come along , and there are a few great ones , but to be great and stay great , it really is special .
[ 15 ]
in 1997 , allen paulson , an american owner , said he was looking into the possibility of cloning his prize asset , cigar . the outstanding american horse of the past two decades and the most eagerly anticipated stallion in years , cigar had proved sterile when he came to stud . the response to paulson ' s idea from the jockey club in the uk at the time was telling :
quite a few barriers would have to come down before cloning became a reality . it ' s highly unlikely . . . if you ' ve got an endless supply of champions , the value of the breeding business would decrease dramatically .
zilzal ( foaled 31 march 1986 - august 13th , 2015 ) is an american - bred , british - trained thoroughbred racehorse . in a racing career that lasted just over five months , he won five of his six races , including the sussex stakes and queen elizabeth ii stakes . he was the horse of the year in england in 1989 and achieved the highest timeform rating of the year . zilzal was owned by mana al maktoum and trained by sir michael stoute . he was ridden by walter swinburn in all of his races . zilzal became a stallion after retiring from racing and sired some top racehorses , including always loyal , among men , and faithful son .
in the 2013 world ' s best racehorse rankings , beholder received a rating of 121 , ranking her as the second - best three - year - old filly in the world behind the french - trained treve , and the thirty - eighth best horse in the world of any age or either sex . [ 63 ] in 2015 , she received a rating of 123 following her pacific classic win , placing her in a tie for eighth worldwide and second only to treve as the highest - rated filly or mare . [ 64 ] in 2016 , she again received a rating of 123 , tying her for tenth worldwide and second to winx as the highest rated mare . [ 65 ]
sitting on a wooden horse , your hands clasped around a cool , brass pole , you are swung around and around as the sights of an amusement park blur past your vision . as you circle around , your eyes begin to wander and become fixated on the central pillar of the carousel . the pillar goes out of focus as you begin to notice what’s on the other side . the ticket booth goes by , then a food vendor . there’s a family posing for a picture , then some benches with people resting their feet . around and around , the scene drifting behind the center column of the carousel changes until you have come all the way around and are looking at the ticket booth again .
