He was undefeated in his career and won three Group One races in 1995, in which year he was voted the Cartier Three-Year-Old European Champion Colt.Lammtarra's Epsom Derby triumph in June 1995 came just months after the tragic fatal shooting of his young trainer Alex Scott.Frankie Dettori's swoop on 9:1 shot Tamure had seemed certain to carry him to victory, but Lammtarra quickly made up at least six lengths in the last 1+1⁄2 furlongs.A couple of furlongs into the race, Dettori started to improve Lammtarra's position, but trainer Geoff Wragg's Pentire moved up on his outside, seemingly with plenty in hand.Lammtarra stood his first season at Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum's Dalham Hall Stud near Newmarket.At the end of the 1996 breeding season, he was sold to Japanese breeders for $30 million to stand at the largest stallion farm in the Hidaka area for a stud fee of £30,000.[3] Although the foals have not been great performers, mares sired by him are highly sought after, due to Lammtarra's excellent bloodlines.
