A Fleet's Dancer (born February 19, 1995) was a Kentucky bred racehorse that became a competitive runner in Canada.

Race career

While he was a black-type winner throughout his career, with a win in the grade three Canadian Derby during his three year old year, his best year was his six year old season. He would go on to win the two grade three races, Dominion Day Handicap, and Durham Cup Handicap; while placing in the grade two Saratoga Breeders' Cup Handicap, and Kentucky Cup Classic Handicap. His performances in these races would win him the 2001 Sovereign Award for Champion Older Male.[1]

Retired

A Fleet's Dancer retired in 2002 to Anson Stud Farm in Caldon East, Ontario, Canada. He sired a few stakes performers, but nothing close to his caliber. He only produced a few crops before he was euthanized in 2007. It's rumored that he had a difficult temperament and injured a farm employee before being put down.[2]
