was Prince of Dance the one that dead-heated imo ?!
|
|
By:
good memory timeless.dh with B Hill's Scenic at Newmarket in 1988.
|
|
By:
and then it died shortly after
 |

By:
I think that dead heat was the start of the Sadler's Wells revolution.

By:
so was it the same colours as lord weinstock,ithought ballymacoll stud was his colours
|
|
By:
I thought it was the all white colours, isn't Weinstock the Pilsudski colours?
|
|
By:
they are actually very pale blue with a yellow cap but they do look whitish
|
|
By:
nope, different colours but there is a connection of sorts,
Sir Michael Sobell owned Prince of Dance but it was bred by Ballymacoll stud which owned Pilsudski  |

Michael Sobell's colours were white (Troy) & Simon Weinstock's (Pilsudski) looked very similar but were light blue. I didn't know the bloke (Simon) had died and subsequently that BOTH of the above had connections to Ballymacoll Stud. So when were Sobell's original colours last seen on a racecourse? PS - check this out...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_George_VI_and_Queen_Elizabeth_Stakes 1979 & 1980 winners - I was aware he had Ela Mana Mou, but I never knew Weinstock had a share in Troy  |

I always thought they owned horses together...Weinstock and Sobell..?
Prince of Dance was a lovely animal imo, would have been exceptional over middle distances with his breeding (Sadlers Wells - Sun Princess). Just a pity he died before he had a chance to show it - I believe he was found to have cancer in his back after the Derby when he trailed in behind Nashwan. Still think he could have been a contender to his stablemate... |

Sir Michael Sobell was Arnold Weinstock's father in law. Hope this helps
