Olwyn
Olwyn (1974 – after 1990) was a British Thoroughbred racehorse and broodmare best known for her win in the 1977 Irish Oaks. A daughter of the Epsom Derby winner Relko she won once from twelve races in 1976 and 1977. She finished no better than third in four starts as a two-year-old, but showed promising form in the spring of 1977, finishing second in the Pretty Polly Stakes and the Lancashire Oaks. After failing to win in her first nine races she recorded her first and only victory when narrowly winning a poorly contested Irish Oaks in July 1977. She was well beaten in two subsequent races and retired at the end of the year. She made little impression as a broodmare.
==Background==
Olwyn was a big, strong bay mare with a small white star bred in the United Kingdom by the Dollanstown Stud. She was sired by Relko, the French-trained winner of the 1963 Epsom Derby. Relko was not a conspicuous success as a sire of winners,〔 〕 although several of his daughters made an impact as broodmares. Olwyn was the second foal of her dam Nantahalah, who, as a descendant of the broodmare Never Again, was related to Al Bahathri and her son Haafhd.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Maid Of Masham - Family 9-e )〕
As a yearling Olwyn was sent to the sales and was bought for 3,000 guineas〔 〕 by representatives of Souren Vanian, a French-Armenian arms dealer.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Souran Vanian. A real life James Bond. )〕 The filly was sent into training with Ron Boss at his Phoenix Lodge stable at Newmarket, Suffolk. Boss had ridden for Noel Murless in the 1950s and then worked as head lad for his fellow Welshman Ifor Lewis before taking out a trainer's license in 1972.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Where are they now? - Ron Boss )〕
