Dangerous (horse)[edit]

Dangerous, winner of the 1833 Epsom Derby.

  • ... that Dangerous (pictured), despite a career-ending injury sustained after winning the 1833 Derby Stakes, was able to walk over and claim two prizes unopposed before retiring later that year?

  • A good article. Length, newness, sources and hook check out. I liked the fact that the source stated that the horse "went amiss" as a euphemism for his career-stopping injury. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 10:44, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
