  • Willie Carson

    Willie Carson

    SPORTING LEGENDS: WILLIE CARSON SPORT: HORSE RACING COMPETITIVE ERA: 1970 - 1988 The son of a warehouseman and a waitress, Willie Carson hardly seemed destined for fame and wealth. He was a small lad and got so fed up with hearing, “Aren’t you wee, you ought to be a jockey” that he bought an old chestnut mare from a gipsy troupe for £4. “He often used to fall off but he never cried”, recalls Thea McFarlane, who coached him. “I thought he was too small and frail to be a jockey”. Unlike his great rival, Lester Piggott, Carson was not a natural horseman. “Often I thought of giving up”, he says. “If someone had come up with a good idea for me, I would have jumped at it. Luckily, they didn’t”. At 17, Carson started a gruelling apprenticeship with trainer Gerald Armstrong but didn’t ride his first winner home until he was nearly 20. In 1968, Lord Derby, one of the great names in English racing, asked Willie up to become his First Jockey. “I told him to think it over”, Lord Derby said. “Willie jokes it took just two seconds”. In 1971, Carson joined the van Cutsem stable, his dream being to win one of the English classics, the Derby, 1000 Guineas, 2000 Guineas, Oaks and St Leger. Next year he did, loping home on High Top in the 2000 Guineas at Newmarket. By the end of the season, Carson had notched up 132 Winners to clinch the Jockey Championship. He won it again in 1973. SPORTING LEGENDS: WILLIE CARSON Willie Carson in full flow! Four years later, Carson joined Major Dick Hern, who trained horses for the Queen.

    King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes (Sponsored by QIPCO) Ascot Racecourse Background Information for the 65th Running Saturday, July 25, 2015 Winners of the Investec Derby going on to the King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes (Sponsored by QIPCO) Unbeaten Golden Horn, whose victories this year include the Investec Derby and the Coral-Eclipse, will try to become the 14th Derby winner to go on to success in Ascot’s midsummer highlight, the Group One King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes (Sponsored by QIPCO), in the same year and the first since Galileo in 2001. Britain's premier all-aged 12-furlong contest, worth a boosted £1.215 million this year, takes place at 3.50pm on Saturday, July 25. Golden Horn extended his perfect record to five races on July 4 in the 10-furlong Group One Coral- Eclipse at Sandown Park, beating older opponents for the first time in great style. The three-year-old Cape Cross colt, owned by breeder Anthony Oppenheimer and trained by John Gosden in Newmarket, captured Britain's premier Classic, the Investec Derby, over 12 furlongs at Epsom Downs impressively on June 6 after being supplemented following a runaway Betfred Dante Stakes success at York in May. If successful at Ascot on July 25, Golden Horn would also become the fourth horse capture the Derby, Eclipse and King George in the same year. ËËË Three horses have completed the Derby/Eclipse/King George treble in the same year - Nashwan (1989), Mill Reef (1971) and Tulyar (1952). ËËË The 2001 King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes saw Galileo become the first Derby winner at Epsom Downs to win the Ascot contest since Lammtarra in 1995.
