Oasis Dream (foaled 30 March 2000) is retired thoroughbred racehorse and active sire who was bred and trained in the United Kingdom.
[1] Oasis Dream, a bay horse with a white star standing 15.3 hands high,[2] was bred by his owner's Juddmonte Farm stud.
Jimmy Fortune tracked the leaders on Oasis Dream, before moving the colt into the lead a furlong out, where he ran on strongly to win by one and a half lengths from Tomahawk and Elusive City.
The colt did not perform well at home, and Gosden decided not to force his progress,[7] and instead wait until summer for a campaign based on the top sprint races.
He ran prominently but was unable to catch the Australian horse Choisir and lost second place in the closing stages to Acclamation.
Oasis Dream tracked Choisir in the early stages before catching the Australian a furlong out and running on to win a "protracted battle"[8] by one and a half lengths.
Gosden described him as the fastest horse he had trained and compared him to Abernant, while the Independent's correspondent called the contest "not a Group One race (but)...a homage.
"[11] Oasis Dream was made odds-on favourite for the Sprint Cup at Haydock in September, despite the fact that he was racing on ground that was softer and slower than anything he had previously encountered.
In the 2002 International Classification, the forerunner of the World Thoroughbred Racehorse Rankings, Oasis Dream was assessed at 123, making him the highest rated two-year-old in Europe.
