English: Golden Corn, by Lynwood Palmer (1868-1941). Golden Corn, who was originally called Maize but had a name change, was a good-looking bay or brown filly with a white blaze on her face and one white sock. She was foaled in 1919 and died in 1935, her sire was Golden Sun, her dam was Corncockle. She was bred by Robert Brassey, (1875 - 1946), MP for North Oxfordshire, and was owned by Marshall Field III (1893-1956), an American millionaire, heir to the Marshall Field department store fortune, founded by his grandfather Marshall Field I (1834-1906), one of the earliest patrons of the painter Lynwood Palmer. She was a brilliant two-year-old, winning all but one of her starts and was rated top of her generation in 1921. The following season she ran third in the 1,000 Guineas, failing to stay the trip, but came back to win the July Cup at four (although she had only one opponent). Golden Corn bred two winners, including Cornbelt (two races including the John Porter Stakes). She was also dam of Cross of Gold, sent to America and dam of six winners including Camelot, herself the dam of Blue Grass, who won the Kentucky Oaks for Marshal Field. She won the following races: 1921: Champagne Stakes, Doncaster; 1921: Middle Park Stakes, Newmarket; 1923: July Cup.(Source:[1])
