Hambletonian 10
Hambletonian 10, or Rysdyk's Hambletonian, (May 5, 1849 – 1876) was an American trotter and a founding sire of the Standardbred horse breed. The stallion was born in Sugar Loaf, NY on 5 May 1849.〔http://sugarloafny.org/〕 Hambletonian has been inducted into the Immortals category of the Harness Racing Hall of Fame.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Horse Immortals: Gr-Ni )〕
==Origin and early years ==
Hambletonian 10 was bred by Jonas Seely, Jr. on his farm at Sugar Loaf in Orange County, New York. He was sired by Abdallah who was a grandson of the hugely influential Thoroughbred sire, Messenger. Abdallah was ugly in body and temperament, so much so that he was sold to a fish pedlar for $5. Hambletonian's dam was known as the Charles Kent Mare or the "Kent Mare" by Bellfounder (GB), an imported Norfolk Trotter. Hambletonian was at least thrice inbred to Messenger (GB) (1780) in the third and fourth generations (3x4x4). He is considered a foundation sire of Standardbreds.〔() "Hambletonian" Encyclopædia Britannica Online. 4 May 2009〕
Seeley's hired hand, William Rysdyk, cared for the mare and foal. Rysdyk became so attached to the pair and was so convinced that the foal would someday be great that he asked to purchase them. Seeley finally agreed, and for $125 William Rysdyk took his prize possessions home.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Hambletonian )〕
Hambletonian had an unusual build, being low at the withers (15.1 ¼ hh) but high at the croup (15.3 ¼). This length of hind leg did, however, provide a great deal of thrust with each stride, and he passed both characteristics on to all his get.
