  • Early History of Thoroughbred Horses in Virginia (1730-1865)
    Early History of Thoroughbred Horses in Virginia (1730-1865) Old Capitol at Williamsburg with Guests shown on Horseback and in a Horse-drawn Carriage Virginia History Series #11-08 © 2008 First Horse Races in North America/Virginia (1665/1674) The first race-course in North America was built on the Salisbury Plains (now known as the Hempstead Plains) of Long Island, New York in 1665. The present site of Belmont Park is on the Western edge of the Hempstead Plains. In 1665, the first horse racing meet in North America was held at this race-course called “Newmarket” after the famous track in England. These early races were match events between two or three horses and were run in heats at a distance of 3 or 4 miles; a horse had to complete in at least two heats to be judged the winner. By the mid-18th century, single, "dash" races of a mile or so were the norm. Virginia's partnership with horses began back in 1610 with the arrival of the first horses to the Virginia colonies. Forward thinking Virginia colonists began to improve upon the speed of these short stocky horses by introducing some of the best early imports from England into their local bloodlines. Horse racing has always been popular in Virginia, especially during Colonial times when one-on-one matches took place down village streets, country lanes and across level pastures. Some historians claim that the first American Horse races were held near Richmond in Enrico County (now Henrico County), Virginia, in 1674. A Match Race at Tucker’s Quarter Paths – painting by Sam Savitt Early Racing in America Boston vs Fashion (The Great Match Race) Importation of Thoroughbreds into America The first Thoroughbred horse imported into the American Colonies was Bulle Rock (GB), who was imported in 1730 by Samuel Gist of Hanover County, Virginia.

  • Schweppes Melbourne Cup a Classic Final
    MEDIA RELEASE 26th November 2006 “Schweppes Melbourne Cup a Classic Final” A record five bitches to contest Melbourne Cup An extraordinary five bitches qualified for Australia’s richest greyhound race at Sandown Park tonight, creating what promises to be the most keenly contested Schweppes Melbourne Cup in recent history. Miss Mini Mouse ($3.10) secured her berth in Australian greyhound racing’s blue riband event with a scintillating 2.25 length win in 29.71. The Group 2 South Australian Oaks winner will take her place in the final alongside litter­sister Betty’s Angel ($2.50F), who proved too strong in her heat to win in an impressive 29.77. Betty’s Angel will attempt to become the first greyhound since Sydney Dingaan in 1986 to complete the Sapphire Crown – Melbourne Cup double. Paul Bartolo narrowly missed out on a third Cup runner when the third member of his outstanding litter, Leprechaun Pace ($3.60F), was narrowly defeated by Group 1 Maturity Classic winner and Group 1 Sky Channel Topgun runner­up Train A Journey ($3.70). Despite beginning only fairly, Train A Journey railed strongly to win his heat in 29.79. An impressive trial last Saturday morning confirmed the Group 1 Maturity Classic winner had overcome any injury concerns following his fall in the Group 3 Silver Bullet, and is sure to be well supported in this week’s final. Underrated bitch Cash Up ($4.40) gave master trainer Graeme Bate his 19 th Cup finalist when she capitalised on the favourable box 1 to secure a comfortable five length win in 30.10.
