| Owner: Sir Anthony Ashley Cooper, 1st Earl of Shaftesbury Breeder: Sir Anthony Ashley Cooper, 1st Earl of Shaftesbury
The GSB says that the Shaftesbury Turk sires a colt, Lonsdale Counsellor, from Bay Darcy (by Darcy Yellow Turk), a mare owned by Shaftesbury and sold with colt at side to the first Viscount Lonsdale. Lonsdale Counsellor sired Darcy's Counsellor, who figures prominently in early pedigrees.
However, Cuthbert Routh's stud book says Lonsdale Counsellor was sired by an unidentified son of the Shaftesbury Turk, and this is probably correct rather than the GSB. This horse is therefore probably the sire of Lonsdale Counsellor.
