He never contested a race and had little success as a breeding stallion. BackgroundElegant Prince was a chestnut horse with a white blaze[2] bred in Kentucky by Leslie Combs II of Spendhrift Farm & Frank M McMahon. He was sired by Raise A Native, an American racehorse who was unbeaten in four races and was named American Champion Two-Year-Old Colt by Turf and Sports Digest in 1963. Elegant Prince's dam Gay Hostess was a highly-successful broodmare, having produced Majestic Prince and Crowned Prince (Dewhurst Stakes) from two previous coverings by Raise A Native. Her other descendants have included Real Quiet, Caracolero and The Derby winner Secreto.[3] At the Keeneland Sales in July 1975 the yearling was sold for a then world-recond price of $715,000, with Franklin Groves winning the auction ahead of the Canadian Ted Burnett.[4][5] He broke the record set a year earlier by another Spendthrift graduate Kentucky Gold.[6] Both Majestic Prince and Crowned Prince had previously held the record.[6] Racing careerElegant Prince was trained in the United States and was later transferred to Ireland. He did not race in either country.[6] Stud recordElegant Prince was retired to stud in 1979 but had little success as a sire of winners. He died in 2000.[7] Pedigree{{Pedigree|name = Elegant Prince, chestnut stallion, 1974[1] |f = Raise A Native (USA) 1961 |m = Gay Hostess (USA) 1957 |ff = Native Dancer (USA) 1950 |fm = Raise You (USA) 1946 |mf = Royal Charger (GB) 1942 |mm = Your Hostess (USA) 1949 |fff = Polynesian |ffm = Geisha |fmf = Case Ace |fmm = Lady Glory |mff = Nearco |mfm = Sun Princess |mmf = Alibhai |mmm = Boudoir II |ffff = Unbreakable |fffm = Black Polly |ffmf = Discovery |ffmm = Miyako |fmff = Teddy |fmfm = Sweetheart |fmmf = American Flag |fmmm = Beloved |mfff = Pharos |mffm = Nogara |mfmf = Solario |mfmm = Mumtaz Begum |mmff = Hyperion |mmfm = Teresina |mmmf = Mahmoud |mmmm = Kampala (Family 4-d)[3] |}} References1. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.equineline.com/Free-5X-Pedigree.cfm?page_state=ORDER_AND_CONFIRM&reference_number=603660®istry=T&horse_name=Elegant%20Prince&dam_name=Gay%20Hostess&foaling_year=1974&nicking_stats_indicator=Y |title=Elegant Prince pedigree |publisher=equineline.com |date=2012-05-08 |accessdate=2012-08-16}} {{s-start}}{{s-ach|rec}}{{s-bef|before=Kentucky Gold }}{{s-ttl|title=Most expensive Thoroughbred colt yearling2. ^http://sporthorse-data.com/horse/10264834/808/Horse_Elegant_Prince.jpg 3. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.bloodlines.net/TB/Families/Family4d.htm|title=Thoroughbred Bloodlines - Manganese - Family 4-d|publisher=}} 4. ^{{cite news |title=$715,000 paid for colt |work=Central New Jersey Home News |location=New Brunswick, New Jersey |date=July 22, 1975 |page=6 |url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/17997923/715000_paid_for_colt/ |via=Newspapers.com }} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.drf.com/news/when-keenelands-july-sale-was-king|title=When Keeneland's July sale was king|work=Daily Racing Form|accessdate=3 January 2015}} 6. ^1 {{cite book|last1=Morris|first1=Tony|last2=Randall|first2=John| title=Horse Racing: Records, Facts, Champions (Third Edition)|publisher=Guinness Publishing |year=1990|isbn=0-85112-902-1}} 7. ^1 {{cite web|url=https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=_2gm30sGK6MC&pg=PA35&lpg=PA35&dq=elegant+prince+yearling&source=bl&ots=8vHT2J28Sm&sig=Ch6rw6hENKj2wDqRIWPKgKPHfZ8&hl=en&sa=X&ei=IwGoVLySD5Ljas2agfgN&ved=0CCYQ6AEwAQ#v=onepage&q=elegant%20prince%20yearling&f=false|title=Great Breeders and Their Methods|publisher=Russell Meerdink|page=35|year=2008|author=Mary Marshall|accessdate=3 January 2015}} |years=July 1975 – July 1976 }}{{s-after|after=Canadian Bound }}{{s-end}} 3 : 1974 racehorse births|Racehorses bred in Kentucky|Thoroughbred family 4-d |
