Among Men
Among Men (7 March 1994 – 2002) was an American-bred British-trained Thoroughbred racehorse and sire. He was bred in Kentucky before being acquired by the Coolmore Stud and sent to race in Europe. He was unraced as a two-year-old, before winning on his racecourse debut in 1997. In the same year he recorded increasingly important victories in the Heron Stakes, Jersey Stakes and Celebration Mile, although the last of these was on the disqualification of Cape Cross. His biggest win came as a four-year-old in 1998 when he won the Sussex Stakes. He was retired to stud at the end of the year but had little success as a breeding stallion and died in 2002 at the age of eight.
==Background==
Among Men was a big, powerful bay horse〔 with no white markings bred in Kentucky by Gail Beitz & Gainsborough Farm. He was from the fourth crop of foals sired by Zilzal, an outstanding miler who won the Sussex Stakes and Queen Elizabeth II Stakes in 1989. The best of Zilzal's other progeny included Faithful Son (Prince of Wales's Stakes, Always Loyal (Poule d'Essai des Poulains and Shaanxi (Prix d'Astarte.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Zilzal - Stud Record )〕 Among Men's dam Questionablevirtue was an unraced daughter of Key to the Mint.
Among Men was sent to the Keeneland sale in September where he was acquired for $55,000 by the bloodstock agent Dermot "Demi" O'Byrne〔( Among Men auction history )〕 on behalf of John Magnier's Coolmore Stud organisation. He was sent to Europe where he was trained by Michael Stoute at Newmarket, Suffolk. During his racing career he was owned in partnership by Michael Tabor and Susan Magnier. He was ridden in all but three of his races by Mick Kinane. Like his sire, he tended to sweat heavily before his races but was described as one of the best-looking colts of his generation.
