Dante Stakes
Sakhee won two of his three starts at age two. As a three-year-old in 2000, the colt won the Sandown Classic Trial and the Dante Stakes then ran second by a length to Sinndar in The Derby. In the Eclipse Stakes he suffered a muscular problem and finished fourth to winner, Giant's Causeway. At the end of the 2000 racing season he underwent surgery to remove a bone chip in a knee.
