Dancing Time (1938–1958) was a British Thoroughbred racehorse and broodmare, who raced during World War II and was best known for winning the classic 1000 Guineas in 1941.
Dancing Time was the third of four foals produced by her dam Show Girl, a high-class staying racemare who won the Northumberland Plate in 1930.
[3] Wartime austerity also meant that prize money was reduced: Dancing Time's 1000 Guineas was worth £1,184 compared to the £7,592 earned by Galatea in 1939.
Racing against colts, Dancing Time finished third behind Sun Castle and Chateau Larose, beaten a head and a length.
[8] In their book A Century of Champions, based on a modified version of the Timeform system, John Randall and Tony Morris rated Dancing Time an "average" winner of the 1000 Guineas.
