It's nice to know I'm appreciated.
It took me a little while, but:
Deltic (USA) (1986 bay colt Far North - Moon Delta) raced 5 times over jumps in GB, all during the 1989/1990 season.
He won 4 times and placed third in his other start, earning just over £8,000.
He was trained by Martin Pipe, having been claimed out a French trainers yard (not sure if he ran on the flat in FR), and was owned by Roger Warren.
He was sold in June 1990 at the Ascot Sale for 7,800gns, but never raced again.
I cannot find any further racing/training information, so my best guess is that he suffered some kind of illness/injury in training and was retired.
He is at stud currently somewhere in Great Britain, he covered mares every year since 1991 - 2005 (2006 stats are not available till the end of the year) although he rarely seems to have more than 10 mares in any one year. I have not been able to find out if any of his progeny have won on the racetrack.
He is registered with Weatherbys (the racing admin people), if you gave them a call and asked very nicely to speak to the Stud Book Department, they may tell you which stud he is standing at. Their telephone number is 01933 440077.
Hope that is thorough enough for you!
