Zarkandar
Zarkandar (foaled 20 April 2007) is an Irish-bred, British-trained Thoroughbred racehorse who competes in National Hunt races. A half-brother to the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe winner Zarkava he won one of his three flat races before being gelded and becoming a specialist hurdler. He was the best juvenile hurdler of the 2010/2011 National Hunt season when he won the Adonis Juvenile Novices' Hurdle, Triumph Hurdle and Anniversary 4-Y-O Novices' Hurdle. In the following season he won the Betfair Hurdle but finished unplaced in the Champion Hurdle. In the 2012/2013 he won the Elite Hurdle, International Hurdle, Kingwell Hurdle and Aintree Hurdle, although he again ran disappointingly in the Champion Hurdle. He failed to win when campaigned over longer distances in 2013/2014 but began his next season by winning the Grand Prix d'Automne in France.
==Background==
Zarkandar, a bay horse with a white star, was bred in Ireland by the Aga Khan, as were both his parents. His sire Azamour was trained by John Oxx to win four Group One races including the King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes in 2005, a year in which he was named European Champion Older Horse. Apart from Zarkandar, his best runner has been the Prix de Diane winner Valyra. Zarkandar's dam Zarkasha never raced but has been a highly successful broodmare, most notably producing the undefeated Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe winner Zarkava. Zarkandar's breeding was suggestive of a middle-distance flat racer, and he was accordingly sent to France to be trained by Alain de Royer Dupre at Chantilly.
