Ile de Bourbon
Ile de Bourbon (1975–1997) was an American-bred, British-trained Thoroughbred race horse and sire. In a career which lasted from 1977 until October 1979 he ran twelve times and won five races. His most important success came in July 1978 when he won the King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Ascot. He was retired to stud in 1979 and sired the Epsom Derby winner Kahyasi.
==Background==
Ile de Bourbon was a dark-coated bay horse standing 16.1 hands high, bred in the United States by Jane Engelhard, the wife of Charles W. Engelhard, Jr.. He was sired by the Triple Crown winner Nijinsky out of the French mare Roseliere, whose wins included the Prix de Diane and the Prix Vermeille. In addition to Ile de Bourbon, Roseliere also produced the leading British filly Rose Bowl〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Roseliere Offspring )〕 and was a full sister of the leading National Hunt stallion Roselier. When the British trainer Fulke Johnson Houghton first saw the yearling in Kentucky, he described him as "all ribs, looking a right bugger", but bought him anyway and brought him back to train at his stable at Blewbury in Wiltshire. Ile de Bourbon ran in the colours of David McCall and was owned by McCall in partnership with Sir Philip Oppenheimer, Fulke Johnson Houghton and the trainer's mother, Helen Johnson Houghton.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.thefreelibrary.com/Death+of+pioneering+trainer+Helen+Johnson+Houghton.-a0311129131 )〕
