	Godolphin Arabian - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		He was a gift to King Louis XV of France; he was subsequently purchased in Paris by Edward Coke of Holkham Hall, son of the Earl of Leicester, and sold to Francis, Earl of Godolphin, who maintained a stud (a breeding farm for horses) in Suffolk, near the racing town of Newmarket.
		This changed when Lady Roxana, a mare brought to the stud specifically to be bred to a stallion called Hobgoblin, rejected her intended mate, and so the Godolphin Arabian was allowed to breed her instead.
		After this she became a successful broodmare at the Belair Stud in what is today Bowie, Maryland.
