Forest Flower (horse)
Forest Flower (9 February 1984 – 10 February 2011) was an American-bred, British-trained Thoroughbred racehorse and broodmare. In a racing career which lasted from May 1986 until July 1987 she won five of her eight races. She was the outstanding European two-year-old filly of 1986 when she won the Queen Mary Stakes, Cherry Hinton Stakes and Mill Reef Stakes before being controversially disqualified after finishing first in the Cheveley Park Stakes. Her subsequent career was disrupted by poor health, but she won the Irish 1000 Guineas in 1987. She was retired to stud in 1988 and had limited success as a broodmare before dying in 2011 at the age of twenty-seven.
==Background==
Forest Flower was a chestnut mare with a white blaze bred in Virginia by her owner Paul Mellon. She was an unusually small Thoroughbred standing 14.3 hands high. Forest Flower was one of the first crop of foals sired by Green Forest, an Kentucky-bred, French-trained horse whose wins included the Prix Morny, Grand Criterium, Prix de la Salamandre and Prix du Moulin. Her dam Leap Lively, also bred and owned by Mellon, won the Fillies' Mile in 1980 and finished third to Blue Wind in the following year's Epsom Oaks. Leap Lively also produced Scoop the Gold, the dam of the Blue Grass Stakes winner High Yield.
Forest Flower was sent to race in England where she was trained by Ian Balding at Kingsclere.〔
