As a sire he served few mares until Dainty Davy, and Squirrel himself, made it to the racecourse and turned out to be good horses.[1] Squirrel's dam was Grey Bloody Buttocks, a daughter of Bloody Buttocks.[3] He was sold to Jenison Shafto.[2] Racing careerSquirrel's first race was at Huntingdon, where he finished runner-up to Mr. Swinburn's Belford.
