Lots 693 to 697-Mr Dermot McCalmont Mr Dermot McCalmont will always be remembered as the owner of the most astounding two-year-old to grace the Turf, The Tetrach. Born in 1887, he was to inherit most of his fortune from Colonel Harry McCalmont (1861-1902), owner of the Triple Crown winner Isinglass. In his youth, Dermot McCalmont rode over fences and won the Grand Military Gold Cup on his own horse at Sandown Park. The trainer Henry ("Atty") Persse was his cousin and offered him an extraordinary looking blotchy grey colt he had bought at Doncaster at cost price. The youngster-to be named The Tetrrach-was unbeaten in all his seven starts as a juvenile and was winter favourite for the Derby, but injury prevented his racing again. He founded a dynasty for speed at his owner`s Ballylinch Stud in Co. Kilkenny, and was sire and grandsire of Dermot McCalmont`s two winners of the 2000 Guineas. Other good horses campaigned by the Major included Slide On and Piccadilly, both winners of the Irish Derby. Dermot McCalmont was for many years Master of the Kilkenny Hounds. He hunted up until a year before his death. His colours were light blue and scarlet quartered, white cap. The silver-mounted hoof of Major Dermot McCalmont`s mare Ballymacoll, the hinged lid inscribed BALLYMACOLL, 1904-1925, BY HACKLER-BALLYMACARNEY, WINNER OF THREE RACES ON THE FLAT, SEVEN STEEPLECHASES AND ONE HURDLE RACE, SHE WAS ALSO PLACED SECOND TEN TIMES, AND THIRD EIGHT TIMES, IN NEARLY ALL HER RACES SHE WAS RIDDEN BY HER OWNER, MR.

Ltd., London, and inscribed PLATE WORN BY, RHEINGOLD, WHEN WINNING, THE PRIX de SAINT CLOUD, 1ST JULY 1973, diameter 14cm., 5 1/2in., in original Garrard case; sold with two letters of authenticity signed by Barry Hills relating to the Rheingold plate`s donation for the auction at the Racegoers Clubs All-Star Charity Ball in aid of the Injured Jockeys Fund at Stratford-upon-Avon on 28th September 1973. (3) Rheingold was a bay colt bred by Dr James Russell at Bansha Castle in Co. Tipperary in 1969 by Faberge out of Athene III. He was raced by Mr Henry K. Zeisel and trained at Lambourn by Barry Hills. In a highly successful career Rheingold won 9 of his 17 races and just missed out on Derby glory when beaten a short-head by the Lester Piggott ridden Roberto in 1972 (see lot 634). Lester was in the saddle, however, when Rheingold won his most notable victory in the 1973 Prix de l`Arc de Triomphe. Also in France the colt recorded successive victories in the Grand Prix de Saint-Cloud in 1972 and 1973. The racing plate offered here was worn by Rheingold on the latter occasion when ridden by French Champion Jockey Yves Saint-Martin. Other notable wins include the Dante Stakes, the Prix Ganay, the Hardwicke Stakes and the John Porter Stakes. Interestingly, when asked in 1974 Lester Piggott ranked Rheingold amongst the five greatest horses he had ever rode, the others being Sir Ivor, Crepello, Petite Etoile and Nijinsky. Rheingold was retired to stud after his four-year-old season and sired the dual Ascot Gold Cup winner Gildoran and the French Group 1 winner Noir et Or. In 1980 the stallion was exported to Japan where he died in 1990.
