|シーク教の食事「ランガル」
|-
|}
Langar（ランガル）というのは、シーク教で供される食事のこと。

シーク教というのは16世紀にヒンズー教から分派してできたもので、信者の数では世界5位の宗教だ。頭にターバンを巻くのはシーク教の特徴で、インド人が頭にターバンを巻いているというイメージは、実はシーク教徒のものである。インドでも特に富裕層・教育水準が高い層に信者が多いそうで、イギリスがインドを植民地にすると、シーク教徒は優秀な官吏や軍人となった。彼らを通じて「インド人」のイメージがつくられていったのである。

ヒンズー教のカースト制度のもとでは、非常に細分化された身分制度により、異なるカーストの者は食事を共にすることも禁忌になっていた。シーク教はこれを批判し、ともに食事をすることを善しとした。彼らは寺院で、誰でも無料で食事を振る舞う。それが功徳になるとされているのだ。この食事のことを「Langar（ランガル）」という。シーク教は他宗教にも寛容なので、シーク教徒でなくても（イスラム教徒やヒンズー教徒でも）、日本人観光客でも、この無料の食事をいただけるそうだ。

Langar was a flashy, handsome horse that won in England and was a dominant runner in Ireland. First standing as a stallion in Ireland, then in England, he got many winners of races over all distances, from four mile gold cups to sprints, but only one classic winner. He placed second, once, on the sires list in Great Britain. Of his several sire sons, EPIRUS was later a leading sire that got Epsom Derby winner Pyrrhus the First; MR. WAGS was a leading sire in France several times; PHILIP THE FIRST headed the sires list in Ireland, and his St. Leger winner, ELIS, got classic winners on the continent. His grandson, New Warrior, had a sigificant impact on Australian racing and breeding. Of his good daughters, Langar is most notable as the broodmare sire of the Derby winner and multiple-times leading sire Orlando. Today he and his sons are seen in pedigrees through their daughters. 

ランガルはflashyでハンサム。競走馬として、アイルランドとイングランドで活躍。

最初はアイルランドで種牡馬入り。その後イングランドに移る。4マイルのカップ戦からスプリント戦まで、あらゆる距離で勝ち馬を出した。ただしクラシックウィナーは1頭しか出さなかった。種牡馬ランキングでは、イギリスLS2位になったことが一度ある。産駒のうち、[[Epirus]]はダービー馬[[Pyrrhus the First]]をだし、全英種牡馬チャンピオンになった。[[Mr.Wags]]は、フランスでなんどかLSになった。[[Philip the First]]はアイルランドで種牡馬として活躍。唯一のクラシックウィナー、セントレジャー優勝の[[Elis]]。このほか孫の[[New Warrior]]はオーストラリアで競走馬・種牡馬として大活躍した。ランガルを母の父とする代表馬はダービー馬[[Orlando]]である。Orlandoは種牡馬となっても複数回、イギリスの種牡馬チャンピオンになった。現代的には、ランガルはおもに母の父として血統表に登場する。

His sire, Selim, was one of three famous brothers -- the others were Castrel and Rubens -- and a sister, Oaks winner Bronze, by Buzzard, out of a mare by Alexander. Selim was purchased as a three year old by the Prince of Wales, and for him won six races, including Newmarket's Oatlands Stakes twice, Newmarket's Craven Stakes, and some matches. When the Prince's stud was disbanded, Selim was given to Colonel Leigh. He stood at various locations in and around Newmarket for most of his stud career, including some years at Sir Hedworth Williamson's Oxcroft Farm, near Newmarket. He got six classic winners, among them Derby winner Azor (1814), Medora (1811) and Turquoise (1825), both Oaks winners, Two Thousand Guineas winners Nicolo (1820, Langar's brother) and Turcoman (1824), and an unnamed filly that won the One Thousand Guineas. Selim was leading sire in Great Britain in 1814, and got several sire sons who continued the tail-male line for some generations, including Sultan (1816, out of Bacchante, by Ditto (brother to Walton), who was his most influential sire son, and Langar, of closely-related breeding, who established his own sire line that lasted for several generations. 

ランガルの父[[Selim|セリム]]（Selim）は、有名な3兄弟のうちの1頭だ。[[Selim]]、[[Castrel]]、[[Rubens]]である。このほか姉妹にオークス馬[[Bronze]]（父Buzzard）がいる。セリムは、3歳のときに皇太子ジョージ（のちのジョージ4世）に購入され、6勝をあげた。勝鞍の中にはニューマーケットオートランズS2回、クレイヴンSなどがある。皇太子が厩舎を解散させると、セリムはColonel Leighに譲渡された。種牡馬セリムはSir Hedworth WilliamsonのOxcroft Farmなどニューマーケット周辺を転々としながら供用され、6頭のクラシック優勝馬を出した。[[Azor]]（ダービー）、[[Medora]]（オークス）、[[Turquoise]]（オークス）、[[Nicolo]]（2000ギニー）、[[Turcoman]]（2000ギニー）、それに[[Selim filly|名無しの牝馬]]（1000ギニー）である。1814年にセリムは英国種牡馬チャンピオンになり、父系を広げた。産駒のうち種牡馬としていちばん活躍したのは[[Sultan]]である。ランガルも数代に及ぶ小父系を築いた。





Langar's unnamed dam (1808), by the influential stallion Walton, was bred by Sir Charles Bunbury, "the Dictator of the Turf," at his Barton Hall estate in Great Barton, Suffolk. Her dam, Young Giantess, also bred by Bunbury, was a non-winner in two starts, but at Barton Hall had become a successful broodmare, producing the good race horse and influential sire Sorcerer (1796, by Trumpator); Epsom Oaks and Derby winner Eleanor (1798, by Whiskey), later dam of the important stallion Muley; Julia (1799, by Whisky), the dam of Derby winner and top broodmare sire Phantom (1808); Cressida (1807, by Whiskey), the dam of Two Thousand Guineas winner Antar and Derby winner Priam, who was an important sire both in England and in the U.S. In 1808 at age 18 she dropped the unnamed filly by Walton that became Langar's dam. 

Langar's dam was a broodmare for Sir William Lowther (3rd) Earl of Lonsdale, a leading figure on the British turf. Like her half-sisters, she was a successful producer. Her first foal was born in 1813: Non-Conductor, by the Sorcerer son Thunderbolt. Next came the filly Pomona (1815), by Vespasian (by Pot-8-Os), and then a filly by Comus that died at age three. After that she dropped six successive foals (including twins, one of which died) to the cover of Selim, beginning in 1817 with Langar. She lost a ten day old foal in 1830, and produced two fillies, by Sorcerer's son Truffle (who had returned from France) in 1832, and by Falcon in 1833. She was put down in November,1833, at Tickhill Stud near Doncaster, where her famous son would also die, in 1841. 

Besides Langar, his dam's most notable son was Nicolo (by Selim), a surviving twin of 1820 that went on to win the Two Thousand Guineas and the Newmarket Stakes in six starts at age three for Lowther. Non-Conductor, and Langar's brothers Rossini, Fiddler and Apollo, all bred and initially raced by Lowther, were also winners at places like Stockbridge, Derby, Bridgewater, Portsmouth, and Buxton, and at age three Apollo won a match over the Abingdon Mile at Newmarket, beating DeVere. Rossini, probably the best of the three, and the longest-running, was later a modest sire: he got Duvernay and some other winners.

Pomona, a winner at Warwick, Ludlow and Oswestry, produced Bud (1827), a winner of Doncaster's Champagne Stakes, and a filly(1834) by Partisan that was the dam of One Thousand Guineas winner Sorella, Union-Rennen winner My Hope, and additional daughters that bred on; the champion American filly Personal Ensign (1984) and her brother, Personal Flag, among other good horses, descend from Pomona. Pasta, who stayed in the Lowther stud, bred some winners, including Flourish (by Partisan), but her line did not continue. 

Langar, a bright chestnut like his sire, with a flashy blaze and beautiful head, was described by The Druid, who called him a "handsome" horse, as a "flash Arab-style of horse about his forehand," which can be seen in the above portrait: Herring, impressed by his blood-like looks, also painted a head portrait of him. He was purchased as a yearling by Howe Peter Browne, (2nd) Marquess of Sligo, an Irish peer educated in England, and a big supporter of the Irish turf. He was put in training with Richard Noke at the Curragh, where he proved to have speed and staying power.

==競走馬として==

Langar started for Sligo at the Curragh in October of his juvenile year, where he won all three of his starts: he took a 50 guineas sweepstakes, beating five, a 60 guineas each sweepstakes beating one and receiving forfeits from two others, and a Post Sweepstakes of 100 guineas each, beating one, with three others paying forfeits. That was it for his two-year-old season, but Sligo considered his success sufficient to consider taking him back to England to race.

Langar first ran at age three in the Doncaster St. Leger in August, but the best he could do was sixth in a large field. He ran a few days later in the Gascoigne Stakes, which he won, beating five, including Arbutus, The Duke, Tramper and Cannonade. He did not run again that season, and was shipped back to Ireland.

In 1821, age four, he won the King's Plate at the Curragh in April over three miles, beating five colts. At the same meeting he started for the Kildare stakes, and was beaten by Ivanhoe, but he was "said to have been amiss at the time of starting." In June he easily won the King's Plate at the Curragh in two mile heats, beating eight. In August at the Curragh he ran second to Rob Roy for a sweepstakes and the Gold Cup, with Ivanhoe running third. At the Curragh in October he won a sweepstakes, beating Roller and three others, and at the same meeting won the Whip (four miles), beating Roller, Rob Roy, and one other. He does not appear to have raced in 1822, but in 1823 he was back at the Curragh in October, where he won the Whip a second time, beating five, and the next day took the Wellington Stakes, beating two others. His wins in Ireland contributed to Sligo's position as leading owner in 1823.


==種牡馬として==


Langar spent his first season, 1824, at Sligo's seat, Westport House, Co. Mayo. The next season he was moved to Sligo's stables on the Curragh. His last Irish crop was born in 1830. In 1831 he was installed at Hon. Frederick Lumley-Savile's Tickhill Castle Stud, near Doncaster, in England, and he remained there until he was shot on January 28, 1841, after having "ruptured himself." In 1836, the year ELIS won the St. Leger, Langar was second on the leading sires list in Great Britain; he had 24 winners, more than the leader, Sultan, with 20, but they mostly ran at a lower, less lucrative level, than Sultan's offspring. 

While nothing like Sultan as a stallion, he acquitted himself well as a sire, both in Ireland and England, with sons that were leading sires in England, France and Ireland. His son ELIS (1833), his only classic winner, won the Doncaster St. Leger, but it was the modest runner MR. WAGS (1833) that was his best sire son. MR. WAGS, imported into France in 1839 by Alexandre Aumont, got many classic winners and was influential there as a broodmare sire; although statistics are not compiled for early French racing, it is almost certain MR. WAGS was leading sire there in both 1851 and 1852, when his great daughter Hervine was carrying all before her, and probably in 1847, when daughter Prédestinée was the champion older horse. Another son, EPIRUS (1834, brother to ELIS), was a good winner, and later got an Epsom Derby winner in Pyrrhus the First; EPIRUS was the leading sire in England in 1850. An Irish-bred son, PHILIP THE FIRST (1828), a speedy juvenile winner, was leading sire in Ireland in 1843. Langar's sons STOCKPORT and EPIRUS were dam's sires of three Grand National Steeplechase winners. 

It is through Langar's daughters, and those of his sons, that he is seen in pedigrees today. Langar's daughters produced four classic winners in three countries. PROGRESS (1833) became the dam of 1842 Epsom Derby winner Attila, himself likely the leading sire in France posthumously in 1850. Another Langar filly, the speedy VULTURE (1833), produced Orlando (1841), another Epsom Derby winner and three times leading sire in England. The German classic winner of the Henckel-Rennen, Leonidas (1853), was out of Langer's exported daughter LANGOLEE (1838), and the ill-fated, brilliant Prix du Jockey Club winner Lion was out of Langar's exported daughter MISS CAROLINE (1833). 


===アイルランドでの成績===

Lord Sligo was very fond of Waxy blood. He bought from the Duke of Grafton and imported Wilful and Wire, full sisters to the noted runner and stallion Whisker, all by Waxy. Both sisters produced numerous winners for Sligo, several of them by Langar. He also bought Waxy's Epsom Derby-winning son Waxy Pope, who had an enormous influence on Irish bloodstock: Steam, a Waxy Pope daughter, bred three youngsters by Langar.

Steam's 1825 Langar filly, FOAM placed second twice in sweepstakes at the Curragh as a juvenile. She was a good producer for Sligo, breeding Frank, a useful runner in Ireland, Spume, a winner of the Great Yorkshire Stakes in England, and Suspicion, whose daughter Maria (1845, by Harkaway) continued her female line: dual classic winner Reve d'Or (1884, by Hampton) descended from her, and Maria's Newminster daughter Fleur des Champs went to the U.S. to establish a solid family from which sprang two Belmont winners, including The Finn (1912, by Ogden), a Preakness Stakes winner and a Kentucky Derby winner.


Steam's next, and best, Langar foal was FELT (1826). This 15.3 hands tall colt was said to resemble Langar, except for his color, which was bay. He was purchased by trainer John Scott, and in England at age three won four races, but could only place fourth in the Doncaster St. Leger. At age five, running for Lord Derby, he took seven races, including five gold cups, at Chester, Newton, Liverpool, Preston, and the Hollywell Hunt, at distances between two and three miles. He retired to Derby's Knowsley Hall, and got a few foals before his purchase in 1836 by Dr. A.T.B. Merritt -- who imported eighteen stallions between 1832 and 37 -- and shipped to the U.S., where several of his daughters had an impact on bloodstock in the U.S.

Steam's 1829 Langar colt, FANG, was a promising juvenile for Sligo in England, winning the big two-year-old stakes at Doncaster, beating ten, and the seven furlong juvenile stakes at Pontefract; he was an early betting favorite for the Doncaster St. Leger. Sligo sold him to F. Richardson for 3,300 guineas and half of any stakes he won, but mismanagement by Richardson and his connections ruined his later career, when the best he could do was place third to Physician and Birdcatcher (by St. Patrick) in Doncaster's Scarborough Stakes and third in Newmarket's Craven Stakes; he bolted off-course at Newmarket in the fall, and was resold, but never regained his juvenile form. 


Wire's Langar daughter, VAT (1826), ran for Sligo in England, not successfully, and in Ireland at age four, where she was second to Uganda in the King's Plate for mares at the Curragh (4 mile heats), with four runners, and unplaced in the Wellington Stakes, won by PHILIP THE FIRST. VAT went into the stud of Col. J.C. Westerna in Ireland, where she bred a succession of winners, including Wedge (1833, by Picton), a winnner of the Anglesey Stakes and four other races as a juvenile, which made him champion money earner, of any age, in Ireland in 1835. In England at age four Wedge won York's Craven Stakes (1-1/2 miles), and at age five won Newcastle's Northumberland Plate (2 miles) and Newcastle's Craven Stakes. VAT'S other Irish-bred winners included Wirrestrew (1836, by Drone), who also took the Anglesey Stakes. After that, VAT was shipped to England to be bred to high-class stallions. 

VAT'S 1837 filly Welfare (by Priam) was a high-class runner that ran second in the Anglesey Stakes at the Curragh at age two, and in England won the two-mile Ascot Stakes, and placed second in the Epsom Oaks -- she bred some winners, including Harkaway's excellent daughter, The Deformed (1850), and her female line, which included the great Argentinian Congreve (1924), continues to the present. VAT's 1845 daughter Vexation (by Touchstone) also bred winners and established a long-lived female line that included 1868 Epsom Derby winner Blue Gown, 1922 Kentucky Derby winner Morvich, and the Melbourne Cup winner What a Nuisance (1978). VAT'S 1846 son Vatican (by Venison), was a high-class winner of the Newmarket Stakes, Grand Duke Michael Stakes, Ascot's Triennial, twice (3 and 4 year olds), the Ascot Stakes, and the York Spring Gold Cup. Vatican was abused as a stallion, and eventually deliberately blinded in the belief it would make him more manageable (see Venison); he got some good north country runners, but under different management may have been a much better stallion. 

Wire's Langar daughter VAMP (1825) ran unsuccessfully at the Curragh and in England. In 1835 VAMP, after producing four foals in Ireland, was bought by Elijah Boardman of Huntsville, Alabama, and imported into the U.S., where she produced a filly, St. Mary's (1844), by Hamlet, a colt bred by Boardman from imported Consol. St. Mary's' daughter, the unraced Dixie (1859, by imported Sovereign), was an important American matron, with numerous stakes winners and stallions descending from her in tail-female, including Santa Anita Derby winner Rough 'n Tumble (1948), Brooklyn Handicap winner Fit to Fight (1979), and Belmont Stakes winner Hail to All (1962).

PHILIP THE FIRST (1828), was from a Queensberry mare in Sligo's stud. She was sold to Colverstown, Kilcullen, trainer James Kelly, for whom she bred several winners, but PHILIP, by Langar, was her best. A 15.3. hands high horse with "great bone and sinew," he won the First Two Year Old Race and the Anglesey Stakes at the Curragh on the same day. At age three he won the Madrid Stakes, and then ran second to Distingué in the Kirwan Stakes, and in the fall took the Wellington Stakes, after which he retired to stud at Kelly's Colverstown stud; he later moved to H.L. Levinge's Levington Park in Mullingar. He was a better than useful stallion, and in 1843 was leading sire in Ireland, with three winners of six lucrative races. His best runner was probably King Dan, a winner of the Royal Whip in 1844, and of the Irish Cesarewitch, later also a useful stallion in Ireland, but the last of any significance in this branch of the Langar sire line. 

PHILIP THE FIRST is seen in the pedigrees of several mares, including as sire of Peter Colgan's mare Victoria (1834). Victoria bred some high class winners to the cover of Harkaway, including Horn of Chase, a good juvenile winner, like his dam's sire, and leading sire in Ireland in 1858 (the only Harkaway son to reach that level); the great Irish mare Chaseaway (1848), twice winner of the Royal Whip, of Queen's Plates and other races, with descendants that include Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe winner Vaguely Noble; Chevy Chase, a winner; Cheerful Horn, a winner of eight races, later the sire of Grand National Steeplechase winner Cortolvin. PHILIP'S daughter Mustard (1836) was fourth dam of Uncas (1865, by Stockwell), the champion money winner in Ireland in 1867 (at age two), and a leading sire in Ireland five times (sire of four Irish Derby winners). 

Another good Langar colt, RATCATCHER (1830, from Rufina, by Blacklock), "of great power and splendid action," won 25 stakes and plates in 61 starts over several years at places like Chester, Newton, the Pottery (Davenport Plate), Liverpool, Wolverhampton (including the Wolverhampton Gold Cup), Oswestry (Gold Cup), and Wrexham (Town Plate) in England; he later got some winners in England. SILLY PAT (1827) won a number of races in Ireland, including a King's Plate at the Curragh and one at the Royal Corporation meet at Maze. He was a stallion at Tattersall's Willesden Paddocks near London, where he got some winners. 

Other Langar Irish-bred daughters of note include PERDITA (1830, out of Delanda by Gohanna) and CARABELLA (1830, from a Waxy Pope mare). PERDITA produced Johnny (1837), a winner of the Anglesey Stakes at the Curragh that later won the Ascot Stakes and ran second in the Liverpool Cup in England, and of Ballinkeele (1839), also a winner of the Anglesey Stakes. Her female line continued through the twentieth century. CARABELLA'S in-bred (to Langar) daughter, La Belle Poule (1841, by Wedge), continued her family line: Grand National Steeplechase winner Sergeant Murphy (1910), traced in tail-female to CARABELLA. 

===イングランドでの成績===

Langar's first crop bred at Tickhill, was born in 1832. His English youngsters, like the Irish, could stay, and a number won royal plates in heats and gold cups, occasionally after winning as juveniles. They had, said a sportswriter, "more a reputation for speed than stoutness."

THE POTENTATE (1832, out of a Don Juan mare), a gelding, ran through age eight for Lord Eglinton, mostly adhering to the northern circuit, and winning multiple gold cups at Paisley (Scotland), Goodwood's Harkaway Cup, Queen's Plates at Ayr (Scotland), Lancaster, Liverpool, and Manchester, and the 1-1/2 mile Chesterfield Cup at Goodwood (1840). In 1839 alone he won fifteen races, including three Queen's Plates, the Newcastle Cup, and the Silver Bell at Paisley. 

BODICE (1832, from Stays, by Whalebone) ran in Lord Orford's colors first, and then Lord Exeter's. She won the Newmarket Stakes, and a 100 sovereign sweepstakes for fillies in a canter. In the Epsom Oaks, she was third to Queen of Trumps and Preserve ("a considerable distance between second and third"), with ten in the field. She ran last in Newmarket's King's Plate for mares. She dropped in class after her sale to Exeter, and ran last in a selling sweepstakes, and fourth in a fifty selling plate at Newmarket, and after that placed in some selling plates at Stamford and Goodwood before winning the Sussex Plate at Brighton in three heats, but followed that by running last at Lewes in the Gold Cup. She later produced Alexander (1839, by Plenipotentiary), a winner of the Henckel-Rennen (Two Thousand Guineas) in Germany. 


Olympia's Langar Foals

Another Langar colt born in 1832 was STOCKPORT, out of Olympia (1815, by Doncaster Cup winner Sir Oliver), a broodmare in Lord Stamford's stud, and after 1829 owned by John Wood, proprietor of the Greyhound Inn Farm near Doncaster in Yorkshire, who had a small stud. Wood, who periodically raced his own horses in Yorkshire, but mostly bred to sell, was so little-known, that his name is usually misrepresented in the literature as Ward, or Hood. But he engineered the breedings of Langar with Olympia, which led to STOCKPORT and ELIS. 

Olympia, a winner at Knutsford at age three, was a significant matron (Family 13-A). Her filly Kite (1821, by Bustard) was bred by Stamford, sold to Mr. Allanson, and would later produce the very fast VULTURE (1833, by Langar), later the dam of Epsom Derby winner and leading sire Orlando. After she entered Wood's stud, Olympia was bred exclusively to Langar, who was nearby at Tickhill. For Wood she bred the brothers STOCKPORT (1832) and ELIS (1833). It appears Lumley-Savile purchased her after she dropped ELIS, since it is recorded the next foal, EPIRUS (1834), was purchased directly from Lumley-Savile. Her next foals were LATITUDE (1835), later dam of the speedy Loadstone, and finally, EPIDAURUS (1836).

STOCKPORT, standing 16.1 hands "of great power and symmetry," was sold to John Robinson. At two he was second in Liverpool's Maghull Stakes. He ran third third in the Two Thousand Guineas of 1835 (won by Ibrahim), but failed to place in the Epsom Derby. The next year he was third in the Liverpool Gold Cup, and at Wolverhampton won the Holyoak Stakes. He went back to stand at Greyhound Inn as a stallion, and started out promisingly by getting Skipton, who won four of his five races as a juvenile, including the Thirsk Stakes at Stockton. His daughter Miss Elis was a high-class racemare for Lord George Bentinck that won the 1845 Goodwood Cup and the Goodwood Stakes, and her line bred on through the early twentieth century. But location and competition from STOCKPORT'S better-running brothers after their retirement kept his opportunities low; he died in 1845 at York, age 13. He is seen in the pedigrees of some horses through his daughters; one, Miss Cobden (1845, from a Blacklock mare, sister to St. Leger winner Jerry) was the dam of Grand National Steeplechase winner The Free Trader (1849, by The Sea). Free Trader was an entire, and was sold to Australia, where he stood for a while at Tocal, the New South Wales stud of Charles Reynolds; he got several daughters that were good matrons in Queensland.
