We congratulate her trainer Chris Waller, jockey Hugh Bowman and her connections." The other three horses inducted were two-time Melbourne Cup winner Archer, Melbourne Cup winner Light Fingers and Melbourne Cup and Cox Plate winner Saintly.

  • Qatar Goodwood Festival
    Your complete guide to the QATAR GOODWOOD FESTIVAL Presented with the compliments of Introduction Welcome to the 2018 Qatar Goodwood Festival magazine presented by Timeform, which features previews and tips for all of the big races at the track this week. Staying events have always been a prominent feature of British Flat racing which, unlike some jurisdictions, offers a rich variety in the distances of races in the calendar. Much has been said over the years about the need to protect—and enhance—the programme of staying races in Britain, so when Weatherbys Hamilton announced earlier this year that a new bonus scheme for stayers worth £1 million was to be introduced this season, it was well received. The WH Stayers’ Million is on offer to any horse that wins one of four races in May—the Sagaro Stakes at Ascot, the Ormonde Stakes at Chester, the Yorkshire Cup at York or the Henry II Stakes at Sandown— before going on to claim victory in each of the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot, the Goodwood Cup and the Lonsdale Cup at York. The bonus prize has come along at just the right time for connections of last year’s Goodwood Cup winner Stradivarius, who is a short-priced favourite to retain his crown and move one step closer to landing the inaugural WH Stayers’ Million, having won the Yorkshire Cup and Gold Cup in his two previous starts this season. He will be without the services of regular pilot Frankie Dettori in the feature race on Tuesday, but Andrea Atzeni is an able deputy, having won both the Queen’s Vase and this race on him last season, and everything looks set fair for another big run.

  • Crop Serves a Different Purpose Cropto the Virile Stallions Who Rake in the Euros with Scores of Coverings at the Irish National Stud
    VINTAGE TOURISM The 1993 Melbourne Cup winner is still the cream of the Vintage Crop serves a different purpose Cropto the virile stallions who rake in the euros with scores of coverings at the Irish National Stud. As the most popular living exhibit, the gelding gets people through the gates of a business that must pay its way. WORDS AND PHOTOS JESSICA OwERS t the end of a long, narrow avenue they call Oak Walk, an old chestnut gelding lives in the last paddock on the right. It’s a grand yard, nearly an acre square, fringed by oak and beechA and bitten by yellow buttercups. The old gelding is 22 now and probably worth very little, but he is the Irish National Stud’s most popular living exhibit. He is Vintage Crop. It is 16 years since his Melbourne Cup victory, a famous one because he was the first European- trained horse to win. And when he did, his trainer Dermot Weld recited Banjo Paterson’s The Man From Snowy River. “Since I read that poem,” the ever smiling, self-effacing Kildare man said, “Australia has always been in my heart.” In 1993 Vintage Crop had managed to slip through the media spin that courts the foreign raiders, but his win was a cruising one, three lengths clear of outsiders Te Akau Nick 46 THE THOROUGHBRED Sea The Stars (five Group 1 wins), has set tongues flapping since his arrival in March. But he, like many of the racehorses produced here, is a boarder whose owner pays good money for livery, in turn fueling an enterprise audited by the Minister for Finance and answerable to the Minister for Agriculture.
