Bateau (born 1925) was an American Thoroughbred Champion racehorse and a daughter of Man o' War and out of the French mare Escuina. In the Schuylerville Purse run at Saratoga Springs in late July 1927, the filly placed second to Pennant Queen.〔''Nimba Easy Victor In Alabama Stakes'', New York Times, August 12, 1927, pg. 12.〕 She ran in a juvenile special at Saratoga Race Course in August 1927 as a 2-year-old.〔''Rain Soaks Track For Start At Spa'', ''New York Times'', August 1, 1927, pg. 14.〕 In a field of thirteen, Bateau, owned by Walter M. Jeffords, Sr., lost by a length, again to Pennant Queen, a daughter of Pennant and Misty Queen.〔''Chance Shot Loses In Saratoga Upset'', New York Times, August 5, 1927, pg. 9.〕 On November 4, 1927, Bateau was ridden by Earl Sande, a noted jockey of the 1920s. Sande was suspended from horse racing, stripped of his racing badge, and ejected from the Pimlico Race Course after race stewards ruled that he intentionally fouled Reigh Count during the Pimlico Futurity feature race. Aboard Bateau, Sand tried unsuccessfully to elbow Reigh Count into the rail as the colt and Bateau came into the home stretch ahead of fifteen other horses.〔''Jockey Fouled Reigh Count'', Chicago Tribune, November 5, 1927, pg. 21.〕 The filly came in third following ''Glade'' and ''Petee Wrack''. The Maryland Racing Commission reinstated Sande during a special meeting on March 22, 1928.〔''Jockey Sande Gets O.K. to Ride Again'', Chicago Tribune, March 23, 1928, pg. 27.〕 On June 1, 1929, Bateau defeated male competitors to win the Suburban Handicap at Belmont Park with a time of 2:03 2/5. The event for older thoroughbreds also included Petee Wrack, owned by John R. Macomber. This 4-year-old colt finished second, a head back of Bateau. Bateau's winning purse was $14,100.〔''Bateau Captures Suburban Handicap'', Los Angeles Times, June 2, 1929, pg. A3.〕 That year she also won the Whitney Handicap at Saratoga Race Course and the Autumn Handicap at Havre de Grace Racetrack.〔(''New York Times'' - September 29, 1929 )〕 ==References== * (Bateau's pedigree and partial racing stats ) 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bateau (horse)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
