Description:
Winner of six races in England and France, under Jockey Club rules at the time Galloper Light was not allowed to compete in the English Classics, owing to the deaths of his breeder and his part-owner (the rules were changed from 1929). By way of a consolation prize Galloper LIght was able to compete in the Grand Prix de Paris, which he won for Mr Anthony de Rothschild. In all, he won £12,106. He retired to the Southcourt Stud, Leighton Buzzard, Bucks in 1921 where he sired Beam and Light Brocade, both winners of The Oaks. |
