Shareef Dancer was sold as a yearling at a Keeneland auction in Lexington, Kentucky for US$3.3 million to Ashton Upthorpe Stud owned by Sheikh Maktoum bin Rashid Al Maktoum of the United Arab Emirates. The colt was brought to race from a base in Newmarket, England and in 1983 the three-year-old won the Irish Derby Stakes and the King Edward VII Stakes. Sold for breeding purposes to a syndicate for a world record price of US$40 million, he was reasonably successful as a sire and was the damsire of 2000 World Champion, Dubai Millennium.
