About Durtal

Durtal was an Irish-bred, British-trained Thoroughbred racehorse and broodmare. She was the best British-trained two-year-old filly of 1976 when she won three of her five races including the Cheveley Park Stakes, and finished second in both the Lowther Stakes and the Champagne Stakes. In the following year she won the Fred Darling Stakes and finished second in the Poule d'Essai des Pouliches before being injured shortly before the start of the Oaks Stakes, a race for which she had been favourite. After one more race she was retired from racing and became a successful broodmare, producing the dual Ascot Gold Cup winner Gildoran and the Royal Hunt Cup winner True Panache.
