Hula Dancer (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Hula Dancer (foaled 1960 in Kentucky) was a French Thoroughbred filly racehorse. She was sired by Native Dancer, the 1952 and 1954 United States Horse of the Year and a U.S. Racing Hall of Fame inductee. Owner Gertrude Widener raced Ambrose Light in France and brought him to the United States to stand at stud where he sired Hula Dancer's dam, Flash On. Gertrude Widener sent Hula Dancer to trainer Etienne Pollet at his stables at Chantilly Racecourse in France. Racing as a two year old in 1962, she defeated colts while winning the Prix de la Salamandre and the Grand Crit rium, two of France's most important races for her age group.
