  • Fall Championship Season Soars to Record $2.58-Million Purses
    www.nationalsteeplechase.com SEPTEMBER 2016 ’’ I Chasing NATIONAL STEEPLECHASE ASSOCIATION 400 FAIR HILL DRIVE,Chasing ELKTON, MD 21921 Fall Championship Season soars to record $2.58-million purses The National Steeplechase Association’s Fall Championship Season kicks off later this month, and what a season it will be. The schedule of 14 race meets between September and November features record purses of $2,580,000. That’s an increase of more than $300,000 over record NSA purses last fall and includes a new race meet, the Tryon International Equestrian Center Races in Mill Spring, N.C. The inaugural running will be Sunday, Oct. 2, and is scheduled to offer $150,000 in purses. A sizable portion of the fall increase is pro- vided by the Far Hills Race Association, which will offer $700,000 in purses, a $100,000 boost over last year. Highlighting the Oct. 15 event is the $350,000 Grand National (Gr. 1), the richest race on the NSA schedule and boasting a $50,000 increase above the 2015 record level. The New Jersey meet also will add $25,000 to the Gladstone for three-year-olds as well as boosting the purses of the Sport of Kings maiden hurdle and the Ratings Handicap. Far Hills’ sec- ondary feature, the Foxbrook Champion Hurdle for novices, remains at $100,000 for its 2016 renewal. The International Gold Cup meet in The Plains, Dawalan prevailed over Eshtiaal, left, in the 2015 Grand National (Gr. 1). The richest race on the Va., a week later on Oct. 22, will offer $410,000 in National Steeplechase Association schedule increases to $350,000 for its 2016 running on Oct.

  • CULTURE Horseracing and the British
    huggins cvr 8/14/03 12:10 PM Page 1 STUDIES IN POPULAR CULTURE STUDIES IN STUDIES IN ‘This book reveals some major findings, not least about the part that POPULAR POPULAR CULTURE Horseracing racing and betting played in the lives of women, and the sport’s CULTURE inherent conservatism. It is genuinely British in its approach and uses a HUGGINS wide range of primary and secondary sources from across the nation to bring out local and regional variations.’ and the British Wray Vamplew, University of Stirling ROM THE PRIZE-WINNING AUTHOR of Flat Racing and British Society F 1780–1914, this is the first book to provide a detailed consideration of the 1919–1939 history of racing in British culture and society and to explore the cultural world of racing during the interwar years. MIKE HUGGINS It breaks new ground by showing how racing’s pleasures were enjoyed even by Horseracing andtheBritish the supposedly respectable middle classes, and gave some working-class groups hope and consolation during economically difficult times. Regular attendance and increased spending on betting were found across class and generation, and women too were keen participants. Enjoyed by the Royal Family and controlled by the Jockey Club and National Hunt Committee, racing’s visible emphasis on rank and status helped defend hierarchy and gentlemanly amateurism, and provided support for more conservative British attitudes. The mass media provided a cumulative cultural validation of racing, helping define national and regional identity, and encouraging the affluent consumption of sporting experience and frank enjoyment of betting. The broader cultural approach of the first half of the book is followed by an exploration of the internal culture of racing itself: the racecourse and course life, trainers and jockeys such as Steve Donoghue or Gordon Richards, trainers like Fred Darling or the Honourable George Lambton, owners and breeders such as the Aga Khan, Lord Rosebery or the actor Tom Walls.
