FAMOUS HORSES
Persimmon 1896Persimmon was the first Royal winner of the Derby for 108 years. A lengthy bay colt by St Simon, Persimmon had always galloped like a Derby horse which he duly won. As a four-year-old Persimmon reached his peak, winning the Gold Cup by eight lengths, and then reverting to half the distance in the Eclipse Stakes. Persimmon retired to the Royal Stud at Sandringham, and met with immediate success, siring the great Sceptre in his first crop.
