Intercontinental (foaled 2000 in England) is a Thoroughbred Champion racehorse who competed in England, France, and the United States.
Bred and raced by Khalid Abdullah's Juddmonte Farms, she was sired by Danehill, a multiple Champion sire in England, Ireland, and France and the most successful sire in the history of Australian Thoroughbred racing. Her dam was the outstanding broodmare Hasili, whose sire Kahyasi won the 1988 Irish and Epsom Derbys. Intercontinental is a full sister to Cacique, Banks Hill, and Champs Elysees.
Based in France with trainer André Fabre, Intercontinental made three starts at age two. She won two races and was third in the Group One Grand Critérium. At age three in 2003, she made six starts at racecourses in France and England. Her only win came in the Listed Prix Amandine for three-year-old fillies at Deauville-La Touques Racecourse. She notably ran third to winner Russian Rhythm in the Group One 1,000 Guineas Stakes at Newmarket Racecourse. [1]
