PHAROS H, THOROUGHBRED, 1920 Color: br DE 306/06/40842/20; AQHA # T0153359 (GB) 30-14-5-6, $75,331 Won the Bedford Stakes, Chesham Stakes, Mersey Stakes, Lambton Stakes, Hurst Park Great Two-Year-Old Stakes, Royal Stakes, Liverpool Summer Cup (1924), North Sea Stakes, Duke of York Handicap, Champion Stakes (1924), Hastings Stakes, March Stakes (1924), and the Duke of York Stakes 2nd Place Houghton Stakes, Derby Stakes, and Champion Stakes (1925) 3rd Place Pontefract Stakes, March Stakes (1925), Liverpool Summer Cup (1925), and Nunthorpe Stakes The best ten-furlong horse of his era His male line became one of the most significant in the last fifty years Leading sire in England in 1931 Leading sire in France in 1939 Sire of Nearco, Pharis, and Cameronian Full brother to the good Stakes Winners FAIRWAY and FAIR ISLE Half-brother to SPITHEAD Pharos was foaled on April 4, 1920, a neatly balanced middleweight dark bay or brown colt with no white markings. Compactly made, with good shoulders, good quarters, and loads of quality. As such, he more nearly resembled his dams sire Chaucer than Phalaris, although he threw back to Phalaris innate speed rather than inheriting the stamina of his dams side of the equation. If he could be faulted, it was for being slightly back at the knee and slightly sickle hocked. He was sound, agile, and dead game, owning an agreeable temperament that made him well liked by his handlers.
