caption_attribution_description: 1913 St. Leger winner Night Hawk.
context_page_description: Night Hawk was an Irish-bred, British-trained Thoroughbred racehorse and sire. He was unraced as a juvenile and showed solid, but unremarkable form in his first four starts as a three-year-old in 1913 before recording a 50/1 upset victory in the St Leger. He failed to win or place in five subsequent races and was retired at the end of 1914. He has been described as one of the worst classic winners of the 20th century. He made no impact as a breeding stallion. It was said of him "Night Hawk has only one speed, but he stays forever".
