Lanzarote (1968–1977) was a top-class hurdler and steeplechaser who won the Champion Hurdle in 1974. He died after breaking a leg early in the 1977 Cheltenham Gold Cup. A powerful horse on the course but quiet off it, Lanzarote won 23 of 36 races and is rated in the top-10 hurdlers of all time by Timeform.[1]
