Eclipse was the outstanding equine figure in the earlier saga of British blond- stock. : Born before either the Derby or the Jockey Club bad boen instituted be was bred by William Duke of Cumberland and sold as a yearling after his death for 75 guineas to William Wildman, a meat salesman in Leadenhall Market,
