Coronation (British horse)
Coronation (foaled 1838) was a British Thoroughbred racehorse and sire. In a career that lasted from August 1840 to September 1841 he ran seven races. He began his career with a run of six successive victories including the 1841 Epsom Derby. He was retired after being narrowly defeated in the St. Leger Stakes at Doncaster. Coronation later had moderate success as a stallion before he was exported to Russia.
==Background==
Coronation, a "blood" bay horse standing 16 hands high, was bred by his owner, Abraham Rawlinson of Chadlington in Oxfordshire. The ''Farmer's Magazine'' described him as a "splendid looking animal" with a strong, tapering head, muscular shoulders and long legs. Coronation was prepared for racing "with considerable ability" by Ben Painter (or Painten),〔 Rawlinson's "stud groom" at Chadlington and Heythrop Park. He was foaled in the year of Queen Victoria's coronation.
Coronation's sire, Sir Hercules, was an Irish-bred racehorse who ran third in the St Leger of 1829. He went on to become a highly successful and influential stallion. He sired many important winners including Faugh-a-Ballagh (St Leger), The Corsair (2000 Guineas) and Birdcatcher, the male-line ancestor of most modern thoroughbreds.
