Dankaro
Dankaro (8 May 1971 – 1979) was a French Thoroughbred racehorse and sire. One of the last champions bred by Marcel Boussac, he showed promise as a two-year-old in 1973 when he won the Prix de Cabourg. In the following spring he established himself as arguably the best three-year-old colt in Europe with successive wins in the Prix Greffulhe, Prix Daru and Prix Lupin. He finished second when favourite for the Prix du Jockey Club and was the first male horse to finish when third to Dahlia in the King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes. His racing career was then ended by injury and he was retired to stud where he had no success as a breeding stallion.
==Background==
Dankaro was a chestnut horse with a narrow white blaze and four short white socks bred by his owner Marcel Boussac at his Haras de Fresnay-le-Buffard in Lower Normandy. By the 1970s, Boussac's textile business, which had made him one of the richest men in France, was in severe difficulties and his studs were producing few top-class performers.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=World Of Breeding: Why the Lagardere empire is a desirable commodity. )〕 Dankaro was sired by Dan Cupid, a Kentucky-bred, French-trained stallion best known as the sire of Sea Bird. Dankaro's dam, Takaroa, came from one of Boussac's best families, being a daughter of the Prix Vermeille winner Arbencia, who was herself a daughter of the Poule d'Essai des Pouliches winner Palencia.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Thoroughbred Bloodlines - The Oldfield Mare Mare - Family 14 )〕 The colt was sent into training with Roger Poincelet (1920-1977), formerly a leading jockey.
