Noor


Oil on canvas. 25 X 34.
Noor was Irish-bred, foaled in England and brought to California by Charles S. Howard, now famous as the owner of Seabiscuit. Noor, though not so well-known, was perhaps one of the finest racehorses ever, defeated the legendary Citation in six of eight of their meetings, and still holds the world record for 1 3/4 miles.
