content: Hinddo was foaled in 1878, his sire being Virgil and his dam Florence. He was bred by Daniel Swigert on Elmendorf Farm in Kentucky. Hindoo was related to the Kentucky Derby winners Ben Ali and Vagrant, both also progeny of Virgil. Originally trained by Edward D. Brown and later James G. Rowe, Sr. after a $15,000 sale to the Dwyer Brothers, Hindoo became a favorite for the 1881 Kentucky Derby. He was ridden by Jim McLaughlin in the Derby, and after a pass on the homestretch won by four lengths. After the Derby, Hindoo continued on to win 19 consecutive races, and his total earnings amounted to $71,875. In his first season at stud, Hindoo produced the colt Hanover, who would become the leading sire in the United States. He died July 4, 1901 in Paris, Kentucky and was one of the first horses inducted into the Racing Hall of Fame in 1955.
