Compton Admiral (foaled 11 January 1996) was a British Thoroughbred racehorse and sire best known for his upset win over a strong field in the 1999 Eclipse Stakes. He showed promising form as a two-year-old in 1998, winning one of his four races and finishing second in both the Chesham Stakes and the Solario Stakes. In the following year he won the Craven Stakes on his debut but ran poorly in both the 2000 Guineas and the Epsom Derby before winning the Eclipse at odds of 20/1. His later career was severely restricted by injury and he was retired to stud in 2001. He made no impact as a sire of winners. ==Background== Compton Admiral was a bay horse with a white star bred by Hascombe & Valiants Studs, a breeding organisation run by Philip Oppenheimer a member of the family that controlled the De Beers Mining Company. He was one of the best horses sired by Suave Dancer an American-bred horse which won the Prix du Jockey Club, Irish Champion Stakes and Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe in 1989. Compton Admiral was the second foal produced by Sumoto, a mare who won two races and went on to produce the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes winner Summoner. In October, Compton Admiral was sent to the Tattersalls Sales at Newmarket where he was bought for 21,000 guineas by the Swedish businessman Erik Penser. The colt was sent for training with Gerard Butler at Blewbury.
