Distant Relative (horse)
Distant Relative (10 March 1986 – 26 November 2005) was an Irish-bred British-trained Thoroughbred racehorse and sire. After running fifth on his debut he never finished unplaced again ending his racing career with a record of eight wins and nine places from eighteen starts. He emerged as top-class miler in 1989, recording wins in the Phoenix International Stakes, Hungerford Stakes, Celebration Mile and Challenge Stakes. He was even better as a four-year-old in 1990, winning the Sussex Stakes and the Prix du Moulin. He was also placed in many important races including the Irish 2000 Guineas, Queen Elizabeth Stakes and Prix Jacques le Marois. On his retirement from racing he stood as a breeding stallion and had some success as a sire of winners. He died in Turkey in 2005 at the age of nineteen.
==Background==
Distant Relative was a bay horse with no white markings bred in County Kildare by the Airlie Stud. He was sired by Habitat, an American-bred, British-raced miler who became one of the leading European stallions of the 1970s and 1980s. His other progeny included Habibti, Marwell, Rose Bowl, Flying Water, Homing and Sigy and he was the British Champion broodmare sire on three occasions. Distant Relative's dam went on to produce the top-class ten furlong performer Ezzoud and, as a descendant of the influential broodmare Vagrancy, was related to many important winners including Black Tarquin, Ferdinand and Questing.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Stray Shot - Family 13-c )〕
The colt was acquired by Wafic Said and was sent into training with Barry Hills at Lambourn. He was ridden in fourteen of his eighteen races by his trariner's son Michael. He reportedly moved "appallingly" in his slower paces with Barry Hills saying that riding him was "like going down a road in a car with no tyres".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Classic and Group 1 Winners bred at Airlie Stud Farms, Kildare )〕
