Sultan b c 1816 (Selim - Bacchante, by Williamson's Ditto). Sire Line Selim. Family 8-b.


Bred by Mr Crockford, he was described as a splendid bay with a blaze and four white socks. He was said to be a long horse with a beautiful head, well sprung ribs and muscular quarters and his offspring were good doers. He was purchased at age seven by Brownlow Cecil (1795 - 1867), 2nd Marquis of Exeter, who later owned the remarkable Stockwell (ch c 1849 The Baron).


His turf career was admirable; he won fourteen races. Running for Mr Crockford he placed second in the Derby Stakes to the Duke of Portland's Tiresias (br c 1816). On his Derby form he was among the favorites for the St Leger Stakes, however, during a preparatory morning gallop he broke down and was out for the remainder of the year. He was said to prefer courses at Newmarket, over which he was unequalled despite carrying heavy weight.


He was a tremendous success in the Burleigh (or Burghley) stud, south of Stamford, Lincolnshire, and Champion Sire from 1832 to 1837. He sired five Two Thousand Guineas winners: Achmet (b c 1834), Augustus (ch c 1827), Glencoe* (ch c 1831), Ibrahim (br c 1832), and Bay Middleton (b c 1833) who won the Derby Stakes as well. He also sired Destiny (ch f 1833) who won the One Thousand Guineas, Green Mantle (b f 1826) who won the Oaks, and Galata (br f 1829) who won both the One Thousand Guineas and Oaks Stakes.
