Picaroon (horse)
Picaroon (1922–1926) was a British Thoroughbred racehorse. He was the leading British two-year-old colt of his generation, winning all three of his races in 1924 including the Imperial Produce Stakes and the Middle Park Stakes recording victories over Manna and Solario in the process. In the following spring he won the Craven Stakes and was favourite for the 2000 Guineas and the Epsom Derby but then began to suffer from leg problems which ruled him out of both races. He returned in autumn to finish fourth in the St Leger and then won his last four races including the Champion Stakes. He remained in training in 1926 but his leg problems intensified and he was euthanised at the age of four.
==Background==
Picaroon was a brown colt bred by his owner Alexander Robb Cox, who inherited his horses from his older brother Alfred W. Cox who raced his horses under the name of “Mr. Fairie”. He was sired by Beppo, a male-line descendant of the Godolphin Arabian, who won the Jockey Club Stakes and Hardwicke Stakes as well as finishing third in the 1906 running of the St Leger. As a breeding stallion, the best of his other offspring were My Dear and the Ascot Gold Cup winner Aleppo.〔 〕 Picaroon was the first foal of dam Ciceronnetta,〔 a high-class racemare who won the Trial Stakes at Royal Ascot in 1919. Ciceronnetta was granddaughter of the broodmare Galicia who produced Alfred Cox's champions Lemberg and Bayardo.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Queen Mary - Family 10-a )〕
Picaroon was trained by Alec Taylor, Jr. at Manton in Wiltshire.〔
