Owen Tudor , the 4x4 inbred, is the son of a "BC" type Chef de Race stallion HYPERION" Although he won a war-time English Derby, and as a four-year-old took the Ascot Gold Cup, his offspring tended to take after their dams as far as stamina was concerned, with winners as diverse as the brilliant miler in Tudor Minstrel ( Note that Tudor Minstrel is represented in the Be My Guest line) an equally the brilliant sprinter Abernant . |
![]() |
|||
ABERNANT, "B" type Chef de race himself, won 14 races and was placed 2 times out of his 17 Starts.He was said to be one of the fastest horses to ever race in the British Isles and rated the greatest sprinter of all time by English journalist Tony Morris in an article written for Racing Post in 1999. Grand Sire of Thatching |
![]() | |||
His Dam, Rustom Mahal,, by Rustom Pasha, was unraced. No less an authority than Sir Gordon Richards, the jockey who led the English standings for 26 of his 34 years stated that Rustom Mahal was the fastest horse he ever rode. Interesting that a man who rode nearly 5000 winners and countless thousands of horses in his long career would single out an unraced filly and point to her as the fastest he ever rode. |
||||
The granddam of Abernant is Mumtaz Mahal, (via Rustom Mahal) and is a 5x6 inbred on Urbino. Mumtaz Mahal (1921), known as "the Flying Filly," was considered one of the fastest two-year-olds of all time. Mummy was by The Tetrarch and Lady Josephine The Bloodstock Breeders Review described Mumtaz Mahal as, "Wonderful, as near to perfection as imagination can conceive" More on "Mummy" |

NASRULLAH, 4x5 inbred on Urbino, also is a "B" type Chef de race, Champion 2yo colt in England. Leading Sire by earnings, 1955-56, 1959-60, 1962 Male descendants Secretariat, Bold Ruler, Nashua, Never Bend, Seattle Slew, Mill Reef, and Blushing Groom, to name just a few. More than anything, Nasrullah supplied a new source of speed to the North American racehorse http://www.allthoroughbred.com/feature1.htm |
