BackgoundBred by Hill 'n' Dale Farms in Lexington, Rahy was a son of the very important sire Blushing Groom and out of the Eclipse Award winner and Canadian Horse Racing Hall of Fame mare Glorious Song. Rahy was purchased as a yearling for US$2 million by Sheikh Maktoum bin Rashid Al Maktoum and brought to race in England for the 1987 season. Racing careerOut of his seven starts at ages two and three, Rahy won three races. In his most significant event, he ran second to Robert Sangster's colt Gallic League in the 1987 Middle Park Stakes at Newmarket Racecourse. At age four, Rahy was sent to race in the United States, where he was conditioned by Neil Drysdale. He had six starts and won three times with his most important win coming at Hollywood Park Racetrack where he captured the then-GII Bel Air Handicap by 10 lengths. Stud recordRetired after a racing career that saw modest success with no Grade I wins, in 1990, Rahy was sent to stand at stud at Three Chimneys Farm in Midway, Kentucky. As a stallion, he quickly established himself as an important sire of a number of great horses including twelve millionaires. Some of his progeny are:
As of May 2006, Rahy's offspring had earned in excess of US$74 million. He was pensioned from stud duty on July 1, 2009, due to declining fertility. Rahy died on September 22, 2011, from complications of old age.[1] References
