The elderly Dancer, now living a luxurious life at Alfred G. Van- derhilt's re Farms in had a frustrat- ing 1953 Derby afternoon. That was the day he lost a photo - finish yerdict to Dark Star in the run for the roses. Not only that, it was the big grey's only loss in a 22-start, three - year career that gave the Preakness and Belmont, and! now is one of 21 three- year-olds| who have won two of the three| U.S. triple crown classics since! 1875. In 1954, Native Dancer raced three times, won them all, and) then was retired to stud. He sired Natalma, Northern Danc- er's mommy.
