Committed (horse)
Committed (26 February 1980–May 3, 2009) was an American-bred, Irish-trained Thoroughbred racehorse and broodmare. A specialist sprinter, she competed in four countries and won seventeen of her thirty races between 1982 and 1986. She showed promise as a two-year-old in 1982 and won six consecutive races in the following season, when she was campaigned exclusively in Ireland. As a four-year-old, she emerged as one of the leading sprinters in Europe, winning the Cork and Orrery Stakes and Nunthorpe Stakes in England and the Prix de l'Abbaye in France. In the following year she won the Ballyogan Stakes and Flying Five Stakes before becoming the third horse to win the Prix de l'Abbaye for a second time. She was retired from racing to become a broodmare in the United States and had considerable success as a dam of winners. She died in 2009 at the age of twenty-nine.
==Background==
Committed was a powerfully built bay mare with a white star and white socks on her hind legs bred by the Hickory Tree Farm in Virginia. She was sired by Hagley, a top-class racehorse who won the Withers Stakes in 1970 but whose record has a breeding stallion had been relatively mediocre. Her dam Minstinguette produced several minor winners and was a granddaughter of Leading Home, a half-sister of the Belmont Stakes winner Bounding Home.
Committed was sent to the sales as a yearling but attracted little interest and was sold for $52,000 to representatives of the British businessman Robert Sangster. The filly was sent to Ireland and was trained by Dermot Weld at the Curragh, County Kildare.〔
