Which December was this one foaled in? How many Endless Summers are there? Endless Summer was a three-year-old when he won the Group 2 Richmond Stakes at Goodwood in 2000, and finished runner-up in two Group 1 races, the Prix Morny at Deauville and Middle Park Stakes at Newmarket - all races restricted to two-year-olds.
He was able to masquerade as a two-year-old because Philip Mitchell, Juddmonte Farms manager, registered him as having been foaled on January 2, 1998, knowing that the colt had actually been born on December 26, 1997.
