Racing TV published this video item, entitled “The brilliant NASHWAN slams his rivals in the 1989 Derby… headed home by Terimon, a 500-1 chance!” – below is their description.
Having won the 2000 Guineas on his previous start, Nashwan was a strong favourite for the 1989 Epsom Derby, especially as he was fancied to improve for the move up to a mile and a half.
The apple of jockey Willie Carson’s eye, Nashwan went on to win the Coral-Eclipse and the King George at Ascot – a unique sequence of Group One success that was only brought to an end when he sustained a career-ending injury in the Prix Niel on his final racecourse appearance.
After a successful stud career, Nashwan died in 2002 from complications after surgery for a minor leg injury.
