Comment: A 5x DYK opportunity: Sir Peter also sired
Traflagar (horse), who placed second in the 1806 Derby. May I pre-emptively nominate this yet-to-exist horse bio? :-) --

All four articles were created and expanded to above 1500 characters within five days, are well sourced, show no problems requiring attention. However, the hook is over 200 characters. I suggest removing the years...
Thanks for the reviews and the suggested ALT hooks. I'm okay with both ALTs. I don't mind leaving out the years. I put them in the hook to show a time gap as I find it interesting that Sir Peter was already rather old when he began siring the second generation of Derby winners. I ignored the 200 char. limit as the limit is meant for single DYK hooks, not 4-in-1 hooks. --
