Glenelg (horse)
Glenelg (foaled 1866) was a thoroughbred conceived in England but born in the United States after his dam was imported into the US in 1866. Bred from two horses of no notable talent, he became one of the most influential sires of his time. He excelled both on the track and in the breeding shed.
