Kris Kin (5 March 2000 – August 2012) was a retired Thoroughbred race horse, and active sire. He was bred in the United States but was trained in England during his racing career. In a career that lasted just over a year, from October 2002 to October 2003, he ran seven times and won three races, most notably the Epsom Derby in 2003. Kris Kin stood as a stallion in Italy, before being exported to stand in Libya, where he died in 2012. ==Background== Kris Kin is a chestnut horse, bred in Kentucky by Flaxman Holdings Ltd, the American breeding division of the Niarchos family's racing interests. He was sired by Kris S. a son of Roberto out of the Rainbow Quest mare Angel In My Heart. Apart from Kris Kin, Kris S. sired the winners of more than 20 Group One/Grade I races, including Symboli Kris S (Arima Kinen, Tenno Sho), Brocco (Breeders' Cup Juvenile) and Dr Fong. (St. James's Palace Stakes). Angel In My Heart won the Group Three Prix de Psyche in 1995 and was placed in the Yellow Ribbon Stakes and the Matriarch Stakes. She was a half-sister of the Prix de la Salamandre winner Common Grounds. On 12 September 2001 (the sale was delayed by one day owing to the September 11 attacks), the unnamed yearling was sold for $275,000 at Keeneland to the bloodstock agent Charles Gordon-Watson acting on behalf of Saeed Suhail. He was sent into training as a two-year-old with Sir Michael Stoute at Newmarket. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kris Kin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
