Breeding and ownership

Bred in Florida, Miswaki was sired by the very important Mr. Prospector that became a two-time leading sire in North America and a nine-time leading broodmare sire in North America. His dam was Hopespringseternal, a daughter of Buckpasser, the 1966 American Horse of the Year and Hall of Fame inductee that became a four-time leading broodmare sire in North America.[3]

Miswaki was purchased and raced by Etti Plesch, a prominent horsewoman in Europe, who as at the end of 2011, is the only female to have won The Derby twice, doing it first in 1961 with Psidium then with Henbit in 1980. In addition, she won the 1970 Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe with Sassafras.[4]

Racing career

Miswaki was conditioned for racing by one of France's leading trainers, François Boutin. Raced at age two, he made four starts on grass in 1980, winning the Prix Yacowlef at Deauville-La Touques Racecourse in his debut. After a runner-up finish in Deauville's Group One Prix Morny, he won the Group One Prix de la Salamandre at Longchamp. Sent to England's Newmarket Racecourse for the Group One Dewhurst Stakes, Miswaki ran third to winner, Storm Bird. For his three-year-old campaign in 1981, Miswaki was sent to race in the United States, where he made nine starts for Hall of Fame trainer Woody Stephens. The colt won three allowance races plus the ungraded Charles Hatton Stakes at Elmont, New York's Belmont Park.[5]

At stud

Beginning in 1982, Miswaki spent his entire 22-year stud career at Walmac International Farm in Lexington, Kentucky. Pensioned in August 2004,[6] he died on December 17 that same year[7] and was buried in the equine cemetery at Walmac International.[8]

The two most notable of Miswaki's successful progeny are the great racing mare Urban Sea, that won the 1993 Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe and is the dam of Galileo and Sea the Stars, and Black Tie Affair, the 1991 American Horse of the Year.
