Skyline was a notable Australian thoroughbred racehorse. He was a son of the champion sire Star Kingdom from the Helios mare Flight’s Daughter and elder brother of another notable performer Sky High.
Following exceptional wins in the 1958 STC Golden Slipper Stakes and AJC Derby his promising career was put on hold following a severe injury sustained in a stable accident.
He eventually recovered from the injury but was never the same horse failing to register another win.
Retired to stud with the record of 5 wins from 32 starts, he sired the winners of some minor races but nothing of prominence.
