Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox racehorse Dulcify (14 October 1975– 6 November 1979) was a New Zealand-bred Thoroughbred racehorse. His British-bred sire was the 1970 Irish 2,000 Guineas winner, Decies (GB), a grandson of Pharis (FR), the very important French sire whom Thoroughbred Heritage says is considered one of the greatest French-bred runners of the century.
Dulcify's dam was the Australian mare Sweet Candy (AUS), a daughter of 1957 Golden Slipper Stakes winner and Australian Racing Hall of Fame inductee Todman (AUS).
He was owned and raced by Colin Hayes, who purchased him for $3,250. Hayes called him the best horse he ever raced. [1]
A patient, come-from-behind runner, his most important career win came in the 1979 Cox Plate, which he won by a still-standing record of seven lengths.[1] The betting favourite for the 1979 Melbourne Cup, he suffered a broken pelvis during the race and had to be euthanized.
In 2014, he was inducted into the Australian Racing Hall of Fame.[2]
