Lustre who raced from 1754-1760
There is an absolutely gorgeous George Stubbs painting of this horse currently in an exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum in NYC. [url]http://metmuseum.org/exhibitions/view?exhibitionId={1B71AE57-AF6B-4C58-A8A8-C9A8E300DA58}&oid=682984&pkgids=307&pg=1&rpp=20&pos=5&ft=*[/url] He was owned by Viscount Bolingbroke. He is not in the database, and I was wondering if y'all could find his breeding. He was retired to stud, so there ought to be something on him somewhere. He's not in TB Heritage or TB Bloodlines. He's very clearly a TB in his portrait.

This was Lustre, ch c 1754 by Blank, out of Young Look At Me Lads by Ancaster Grasshopper. No great success in the stud which may explain why he wasn't already in the db.
