closely resemble the Godolphin Arabian than any other
imported Eastern horse. He was advertised by John Giles
to cover at Bowes Farm, near Southgate, Middlesex, for a
fee of 5 guineas. He got close to a dozen offspring,
many of whom were winners. (1) Sir John Moore's Dupe (b

Newton's Arabian
c
1725c. Sir Michael Newton (1695c-1743), 4th bt of Barr's
Court, Gloucestershire, maintained a small racing and
breeding stud in the first half of the eighteenth
century. He bred and raced the exceptional runner Elephant (gr
c 1734) who was sufficiently successful to garner champion
stallion honours for his sire, Newton's Grey Arabian
(also known as Bloody Buttocks) in 1739. For more
information on the Newton family and racing stable
please see Owners &
Breeders. This Newton's Arabian, who may have been
the same horse as Newton's Bay Arabian or Newton's Grey
Arabian, was the sire of three known offspring, one of
whom, Ruby (ro c 1734) ran for Lady Coningsby (Sir
Michael's wife) garnering second place finishes for the
Ladies Plate at York, the Royal Plate at Nottingham and
the Ladies Plate at Lincoln. None of the offspring bred
on.
Newton's Bay Arabian
b c 1720c. Also owned by Sir Michael Newton, he may have
been the same horse as Lovel's Arabian, owned by Thomas
Coke (1697-1759), Lord Lovel and Earl of Leicester.
Newton's Bay Arabian was used extensively in the Newton
stud, getting over fifteen foals from 1729 to1734.
Although relatively few of them bred on several of them
did well on the turf. (1) Miss Parrot (gr f 1729) won a
100gs match at Newmarket from the Duke of Bridgewater's
Patch, (2) Cricket (b c 1730) won a 100gs each
sweepstakes at Newmarket, beating Lord Essex's bay
filly, (3) Spot (b c 1732) won a number of races
including a fifty at Tamworth beating the famous
Beaver's Driver
(ch c 1732 Snake), and (4) Nero (ro c 1734) won at
New Malton, Grantham and Nottingham. Of those that bred
on, the most famous was probably the Duke of Ancaster's
Look at Me Lads (ch f 1731), an ancestress of most of
Family 14. Nero,
mentioned above, was sent to Ireland and there got the
King's Plate winner Miss Baker (1747).

four Derby Italiano winners: Carl'Andrea (b c 1884
Andred), Filiberto (b c 1885 Scobell), Hira (b f 1894

[Leedes Arabian] br c 1755. He was said to have been purchased from the King of Sinna

Northumberland Brown Arabian [Pick 2:46]. She ran third

Sir C Bunbury at Barnet. (3) Mr Shafto's Mittimus (b c
1767) won a 100gs each sweepstakes at Newmarket, after

around ten offspring from 1777 to 1785. A few of these,
notably Valet (b c 1780) and Ophir (b c 1780), ran with
minimal success and did not breed on. The remainder have
no further record.
Northumberland's Golden Arabian

Book to have been the sire of Nonsuch (b c 1762),
although other sources indicate Nonsuch was sired by the
Northumberland Brown Arabian [GSB 1:92, Pick 1:249,
Weatherbys 1768]. None of the offspring seem to have
had any success on the turf although a few of them did well
in the stud. (1) An unnamed mare was the 2nd dam of the
Duke of Cumberland`s Chance (br c 1780 Javelin who won a
