Roussalka (horse)
Roussalka (1972 – after 1995) was a British Thoroughbred racehorse and broodmare. In a racing career which lasted from May 1974 until July 1976 she won seven of her seventeen races and was placed on four occasions. As a two-year-old in 1974 she won four races including the Cherry Hinton Stakes and the Princess Margaret Stakes. In the following year, she showed her best form in summer, winning the Coronation Stakes and the Nassau Stakes. In 1976 she ran only three times, but became the first filly to win the Nassau Stakes for a second time. She was then retired from racing and became a very successful broodmare.
==Background==
Roussalka was a "strong, robust"〔 mare with a white star and snip and white socks on her hind legs bred by the Newmarket-based Dalham Hall Stud. Although she was bred in the United Kingdom, her immediate antecedents were all bred in the United States. She was sired by Habitat, an American-bred, British-raced miler who became one of the leading European stallions of the 1970s and 1980s. His other progeny included Habibti, Flying Water, Marwell, Rose Bowl and Steinlen and he was the British Champion broodmare sire on three occasions. Roussalka was first foal of the American-bred mare Oh So Fair〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Back in 1966 )〕 who went on to produce Our Home (winner of the Child Stakes and runner-up in the 1000 Guineas), Etienne Gerard (Jersey Stakes) and the Fillies' Triple Crown winner Oh So Sharp.
As a yearling, Roussalka was offered for sale and bought for 21,000 guineas by Nicky Phillips, the owner of the Someries Stud.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=All our yesterdays. - Free Online Library )〕 The filly was sent into training with Henry Cecil at his Marriott House stable in Newmarket.
