Bona Vista
Bona Vista (1889–1909) was a British Thoroughbred racehorse. As a two-year-old he won the Woodcote Stakes at Epsom Downs. As a three-year-old he won the Newmarket Biennial Stakes, before winning the 2000 Guineas Stakes by one and a half lengths. He was trained by William Jarvis and owned by Charles Day Rose. After retiring from racing Bona Vista became a successful stallion, siring Ascot Gold Cup winner Cyllene. Through his son Cyllene and grandson Polymelus, Bona Vista's sire line is the most dominant in Thoroughbred racehorses today. ==Background== Bona Vista, sometimes spelled Bonavista, was a chestnut colt bred by Archibald Primrose, 5th Earl of Rosebery, and foaled in 1889. He was sired by Derby and Champion Stakes winner Bend Or. After retiring from racing Bend Or became a successful stallion. His most successful son was the unbeaten Triple Crown winner, Ormonde. He also sired the champion sire Kendal and Eclipse Stakes winner Orbit. Bend Or was also the leading broodmare sire in Great Britain and Ireland for two years. Bona Vista's dam was Vista, a daughter Macaroni. She won several races, including the Great Metropolitan Handicap, and had already foaled Derby and St Leger winner Sir Visto and Eclipse and Champion Stakes winner Velasquez before producing Bona Vista.〔 Charles Day Rose purchased Bona Vista as a yearling at Newmarket in 1890 for 1250 guineas. This was just above the reserve of 1200 guineas set by the Earl of Rosebery, who apparently regretted selling the colt. Bona Vista was put into training with William Jarvis.〔
