Stud Record
Poseidon's owner had established the 'Eurmeralla Stud' at Gulgong, NSW, with a number of well-bred Australian and British mares to give Poseidon every chance of success as a sire.
His best performers were the "Principal Race" winners:
-
- Rascasse
-
- 1915 QTC Queensland Derby
- Telecles
-
- 1918 WmtnRC Australia Day Cup
- 1919 MVRC Moonee Valley Cup
Poseidon died on 3 February 1930 at 26 years of age. Each year the Listed VRC Poseidon Stakes for three-year-old colts and geldings is run in his honour.

Famous quotes containing the word record:
“We are at war with the most dangerous enemy that has ever faced mankind in his long climb from the swamp to the stars, and it has been said if we lose that war, and in so doing lose this way of freedom of ours, history will record with the greatest astonishment that those who had the most to lose did the least to prevent its happening.”
—Ronald Reagan (b. 1911)
