Jest (horse)
Jest (1910–1921) was a British Thoroughbred racehorse and broodmare, best known for winning two Classics in 1913. The filly won four times from eight races in a track career which lasted from July 1912 until July 1913. As a two-year-old in 1912 she won twice from four starts. On her three-year-old debut she won the 1000 Guineas over one mile at Newmarket and then won the Oaks over one and a half miles at Epsom a month later. She was retired from racing after being beaten in the Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot and the Nassau Stakes at Goodwood. As a broodmare she produced the 1921 Epsom Derby winner Humorist before dying at the age of eleven.
==Background==
Jest was a small chestnut mare with a white star bred by her owner Jack Barnato Joel, the South African mining magnate and three-time British flat racing Champion Owner. Joel sent his filly to his private trainer Charles Morton at Letcombe Bassett in Berkshire. Jest proved to be an extremely temperamental and difficult filly, giving Morton a great deal of trouble.
Jest was sired by the sprinter Sundridge who won three editions of the July Cup before embarking on a successful stud career. Apart from Jest he sired the Epsom Derby winner Sunstar and the leading American runner Sun Briar, and was the British Champion sire in 1911. Jest's dam was Absurdity, one of the foundation mare's of Joel's Childwick Bury stud: in addition to Jest she produced seven other winners including Black Jester (St Leger Stakes) and Absurd (Middle Park Stakes, champion sire in New Zealand). Her later descendants included the classic winners Royal Palace, Fairy Footsteps (1000 Guineas) and Light Cavalry (St Leger).
