Richard Welstead Croker, known as "Boss Croker," was an Irish Americanpolitical boss who was a leader of New York City's Rammany Hall. His control oer the city was cemented with the 1897 election of Robert A. Van Wyck as the first mayor of all five boroughs. During his tenure as Grand Sachem, Boss Croker garnered a reputation for corruption and ruthlessness and was frequently the subject of investigations. As his powerwaned following the 1900 and 1901 elections, Croker resigned his position and returned to Ireland, where he spent the rest of his life.
Croker operated a stable of thoroughbred racehorses in the United States in partnership with Mike Dwyer. He also sent a stable of horses to England and continued to race in England. His horses won many prestigious races.
