Horse Racing Forum - USA Thoroughbred Races

Hi,
I am looking for pictures of Danehill as a racehorse. I have looked everywhere online (instagram,Facebook,google,flickr etc) and bought whatever catalogues and magazines I could find with his name on/in it. Is there anyone by chance with pictures or ideas where to get them/buy them? I searched everything using tag words from his victory in the haddock sprint cup or other wins. Thank you very much

You could try contacting Coolmore. I have contacted farms in the past asking similar questions and you would be amazed at what some of them will send you. T

need to contact with Juddmonte first of all

Danehill and Pat Eddery, Haydock 1989

Sorry, I thought he was owned by Coolmore when he raced.

wow awesome, I have contacted juddmonte and coolmore. Juddmonte gave me one as a stallion which I found on google as well. Your picture is awesome? how did you get that? any chance you can send that in bigger? I would love to frame that (personal use only!)

@ twingo, your picture is Bated Breath in 2012 not Danehill but thanks for the try.

The problem is that he raced in 1989. You would think that pics would be easier to find but they all seem to be just him at stud. I can tell you that the pic of him in Dynasties by Edward Bowen, is a black and white of his conformation. He is not in Thoroughbred Stallions by Tony Morris, which is a fantastic book, but seems to stop around 1987, even though it wasn't published until 1990 or 1991.
I'm sure you've seen his videos on Youtube. But here they are anyway.

yes, my mistake. Both with two white socks on left side.

You know who may have a photo of him racing is the unofficial Facebook page "Juddmonte Farms". It is run by fans of Juddmonte, but they do a really great job. During the quiet time (winter) of racing, they go through and list some of the top Juddmonte horses of all time, and I know Danehill is on that list. If you go back on their Facebook page, probably to last winter, you will find little writeups on each of their top horses from days of yore. Just a thought.

Guys, thanks for the ideas, i have had contact with the Facebook page of juddmonte. I contacted coolmore, juddmonte, racing post (they have a big archive)
I m having a hard understanding that there is not more pictures of him. Do you guys know of big racing archives? like the one from racing post? thx
