Sire Line
Hutton's Grey Barb |
Hutton's Grey Barb or Hutton's
White Barb (gr c 1695c). Sire Line Hutton's
Grey Barb. One of the fourteen horses brought
from Barbary by Richard Marshall, Stud Master to King William III,
he was presented to John Hutton II (1657-1731) of Marske, near
Richmond, in Yorkshire, in 1700 [Pond:1755, 203 & GSB1:390]. In a
pedigree given for George Hope's Black Chance Mr. Cheny noted
that Hutton's Grey Barb was presented to the late Mr Hutton and
the late Mr Wilkinson by King William [Cheny:1745].
In
the stud he got the stallion Hutton's Surley and the racehorse
Whitefoot. His daughters were useful as well. Sister to Surley, a
foundation mare of Family 8, was
the 5th dam of Marske (br c 1750 Squirt), the
sire of Eclipse (ch c 1764). Bowes was the
ancestress of St. Leger winner Tartar (ch c 1789), Two Thousand Guineas
winners Petronel (br c 1877) and Vauban (br c 1864), and the good sire
and Prix du Jockey Club winner Champaubert (b c 1893). Hutton's Barb
Mare was a foundation mare of Family
58, and another unnamed Hutton's Barb Mare was the dam of Lord
Portmore's Victorious (gr c 1722 Bethell's Ruffler) of Family
62. A sister of the latter Hutton's Barb Mare got Grisewood's
Partner (gr c 1730 Croft's Partner).

Surley |
Hutton's Surley, Hutton's White Turk gr c 1708 (Hutton's Grey Barb -
mare, by Hutton's Royal Colt). Sire Line Hutton's
Grey Barb. Family 8.
Bred in the Hutton stud in Yorkshire Surley apparently was a hunter for
Mr. John before he started, without success, at York in 1714. In 1715 he
placed third in a £30 Plate won by Sir William Lowther's bay horse,
followed by Mr. Pulleyne's (later Mr. Dyer's) very good runner Dimple
(ch c 1708 Leedes Arabian). After his
turf career he was retained by Hutton as a stallion. Surley was said to
have covered for several years as "Mr. Hutton's son of The Grey
Barb" [GSB1:5], and he was sometimes also referred to as
Hutton's White Turk. Surley got Routh's Surley and Sister to Routh's
Surley, a foundation mare of Family
34 and the dam of Hutton's Spot (gr c 1735 White's Spot). He also
got Jilt (ch f 1726), the dam of the stallion Golden Ball (ch c 1735 Croft's
Partner) and Surley Mare, dam of the very good runner Black Chance
(bl c 1732 Hutton's Bay Barb), who was also a useful stallion. |

Surley |
Routh's Surley gr c 1720, (Hutton's Surley - Mare, by Coneyskins).
Sire Line Hutton's
Grey Barb. Family 34.
He was purchased by Cuthbert Routh, of Snape Hall, Bedale, Yorkshire, from John
Hutton in April of 1725 for 100 guineas. After winning two races he was
sold to Mr. Herbert for 250 guineas, plus another 50 guineas after
Surley had won £100 for his new owner. Surley was said to have won a
stakes at Richmond and later he won the £60 Ladies' Gold Cup at York,
in August of 1725, beating Stephen Jefferson's Quintin (ch c 1720
Skipjack). The great racemare Ladylegs, later called Bald
Charlotte (ch f 1721 Old Royal), who was only four, placed eighth
in this race. Surley was described as a horse "much superior in
strength to Quintin" which allowed him to win the race "with
much difficulty" as the end of the course was very heavy due to
overmuch rain and Quintin's jockey took him wide around the wet [Orton:19]. Surley left no stock that bred on. |

£60 Gold Cup at York in 1715 beating Mr. Metcalfe's Bulle Rock (b c
1709 Darley Arabian), the first "bred" horse sent to America
and three others. Whitefoot doesn't appear to have left any offspring. |
