Bachelor Duke.

About Bachelor Duke

Bachelor Duke is an American-bred, British-trained Thoroughbred racehorse and sire who recorded his only win in six races when taking the 2004 running of the Irish 2000 Guineas. He failed to win as a two-year-old in 2003 but showed very promising form by finishing third in the Somerville Tattersall Stakes and fourth in the Dewhurst Stakes. In the following spring, he finished seventh in the 2000 Guineas but then defeated a strong field to win the Irish 2000 Guineas from Azamour and Grey Swallow. He finished unplaced in the St. James's Palace Stakes on his only subsequent start and was retired from racing at the end of the season. He stood as a breeding stallion in Ireland and New Zealand and had considerable success as a sire of winners in the latter country.
