Slieve Gallion (horse) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Slieve Gallion (horse)
Slieve Gallion (1904–1926) was a British Thoroughbred racehorse and sire. In a career that lasted from May 1906 to June 1907 he ran eight times and won six races. He was one of the leading British two-year-olds of 1906 when his wins included the Champagne Stakes at Doncaster. The following spring he became a Classic winner by taking the 2000 Guineas but finished third when favourite for the Epsom Derby. After winning his only subsequent race he was sold and exported to stand as a stallion in Hungary. ==Background== Slieve Gallion's colour was controversial: he was officially described as a black horse, although his portrait suggests that he was a dark-coated bay, and some argued that he was an unusually dark chestnut. He was bred in England by the Irish breeder Henry Greer, who owned the colt during his racing career. Greer named the colt after a mountain in County Londonderry. He was sired by Greer's stallion Gallinule, a moderate racehorse who became a highly successful sire of winners, being the Leading sire in Great Britain and Ireland on two occasions. Greer sent the colt to be trained by Sam Darling at Beckhampton.
