Coastal Bluff
Coastal Bluff (foaled 19 April 1992) was a British Thoroughbred racehorse. First trained by David Barron in Yorkshire he finished second on his only start as a juvenile before winning two minor races in the following year. In 1996 he emerged as a highly successful sprinter with wins in the Stewards' Cup and the Ayr Gold Cup before his season was ended by injury. He returned as a five-year-old to dead-heat for the Nunthorpe Stakes despite his bridle breaking just after the start. He developed various training problems, failed to win in two races in 1998 and was sold at the end of the year. He remained in training for four more years but won only two minor races from 37 further starts before his retirement in 2002.
==Background==
Coastal Bluff was an unusually large grey horse bred in the United Kingdom by R M West. He was probably the best horse sired by Standaan,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Standaan - Stud Record )〕 a grey sprinter who won the Stewards' Cup in 1979 and the Palace House Stakes in 1981. Coastal Bluff's dam Conbattente showed little ability as a racehorse, but her grand-mother Tina was a successful broodmare whose descendants included Rose Dubarry, the leading juvenile filly of 1971 in Britain and Commanche Court.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Crab Mare – Family 9-c )〕
In November 1992, the colt foal was consigned by West to the Tattersalls sale where he attracted little interest and was bought for 1,150 guineas by J Halford.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Tattersalls ale November 1992 )〕 The sale does not appear to have been finalised as the foal returned to West's ownership. At Doncaster the following March he was again put up for auction and sold for 2,700 guineas to the trainer David Barron.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Doncaster sale March 1993 )〕 Coastal Bluff was taken into training by Barron at Maunby, North Yorkshire and a three-quarter share was sold to David Sharp〔 who raced the horse in the ownership of his wife. Barron's stable was known as a "gambling yard" which often landed big wins in the betting market: the trainer admitted "If I can help an owner's expenses, I will. I'm not someone who gives out information easily, and I believe that if there is any money to be made, the man who's paying the bills should get the first chance to make it." In his early career Coastal Bluff was always ridden by either Kevin Darley or Jimmy Fortune.
