He gave Laurel and Postmaster 7lbs. each each for a sweepstake of a thousand guineas over the Beacon Course at Newmarket. The portrait is of Price, who trained him.'Sharke was bred and owned by Robert Pigott (1736-94) of Chesterton Hall, in Huntingdonshire. Pigot was a sympathiser with the American and French revolutions and an aquaintance of Franklin, Voltaire and Brissot. He is said to have later become 'a zealous Pythagorean, as a vegetarian was than called, and was a dupe of the quack James Graham and his electric bed' (DNB)Sharke's racing winnings at Newmarket alone totalled over 16000 guineas. The highest sum to that date for any racehorse. He commenced as a stallion at Chesterton Hall in 1779. Later he was sold at Tattersall's to a dealer and exported to Virginia. His first season in America was spent at General Spottiswood's stud at Nottingham near Fredericksburg. His period at stud proved a success and he was later described by a correspondent as doing 'as much to enhance the value of the bloodstock of the United States as any horse ever imported' (American Turf Register, 1830, vol V, p173)
