Description

Voluptuary was a Thoroughbred race horse that won the 1884 Grand National. He had a varied racing career, competing in flat racing before becoming the first horse to win a Grand National without competing in a previous year. He was also the first National winner that had also run in the Epsom Derby. After Voluptuary retired from racing, he received critical acclaim for portraying the racehorse "The Duke" in the play The Prodigal Daughter, which included an on-stage reenactment of a Grand National-type water obstacle.
