saintly

adj. pertaining to a saint; appropriate for a saint; holy, sacred, hallowed

Saintly was a champion Australian thoroughbred racehorse. Foaled in 1992, he was bred and part-owned by legendary trainer Bart Cummings. A son of Sky Chase from the Sir Tristram mare All Grace he provided Cummings with his 10th victory in the Melbourne Cup.Saintly was aptly named as it turned out and gained the moniker the ‘Horse from Heaven’ due to his name and his partnership with jockey Darren Beadman who at the time was a proclaimed born-again Christian who the following year announced his retirement to serve God.The winner of only one of his four two-year-old starts, Saintly then came across a vintage crop of three-year-olds in the 1995-96 season that included Octagonal, Nothin’ Leica Dane and Filante. Despite narrow defeats by Octagonal in STC Rosehill Guineas and the AJC Derby, he still won five races including the Group One VRC Australian Cup.
