DUNGANNON

,—the name of a horse of much celebrity, his winnings being equal to any racer of his day. He was bred by Col. O'Kelly, and foaled in 1780. He was got by Eclipse; dam (Aspasia) by Herod; her dam (Doris) by Blank; grand-dam (Helen) by Spectator, &c. &c. After beating every horse of eminence, particularly the famous horse Rockingham over Newmarket, he was taken out of training, and as a stallion produced annually some of the speediest and best bottomed horses in the kingdom. He covered first at twenty guineas, then at fifteen, and lastly at twelve. He was sire of Sybil, Cinderella, Equity, Lurcher, Harriet, Northland, Bandalore, Clementina, Fancy, Griffin, Hambleton, Hop-picker, Minimus, Parrot, Bedford, Pastor, Billy, Edgar, George, Little Devil, Totterella, Totteridge, Cannons, Dispute, Inferior, Outcast, Pensioner, Bragger, Oatlands, Boaster, Omen, Ploro, and Miss Totteridge; all WINNERS; exclusive of many others, both colts and fillies, who ran and won without a name.
