Liverpool (1828 – 1844) was a British racehorse and sire. He helped continue the Tramp sire line through his son Lanercost.

Background

Liverpool was bred at the Bishop Burton stud of Richard Watt in Yorkshire.[1][2]

Racing career

Liverpool was lightly raced due to having small feet for his size. After racing once as a juvenile in 1830, he won his first race as a three year old in 1831. His next win was a head-to-head match with Chorister where he ended in a dead heat, and then won a run-off by a about a length. In 1832, he won the Port Stakes. In 1833, he won the York Spring Gold Cup and the Stanley Stakes.[1][2]
