For Latest Results, Updates and Footage About Horse Races
Annual Report 2012 Another successful season for all horse racing enthusiasts Another year has passed and the 2012 horse racing season was another one full of exciting competitions and championships. During this year, and thanks to the financial support of a number of entities, the Malta Racing Club managed to organize a number of competitions. The club also continued to upgrade the Marsa Racetrack Complex with major works on the main stand and the importation of new sand which was placed in the main track. These works were only possible thanks to the financial support of the Kunsill Malti ghall-Isport which is Malta’s Sport Authority and the Parliamentary Secretariat for Youth and Sport led by the Hon Clyde Puli. As in the past years, in 2012, Malta once again hosted one of the stages of the Mediterranean Championship for Drivers. This heat, held on the 31st March, was won by Maltese veteran driver Raymond Clifton with French trotter Polytain. Champion driver Noel Baldacchino also won another heat of this Championship which was organized at the UFA Racetrack in Russia. As in the previous editions, in this publication, our readers can find information about the major races not only held locally but also in the international scene. Official statistics issued by the Malta Racing Club are also being published in this annual. Finally I would like to thank those companies that once again are helping me financially to publish this annual. Special thanks goes also to the racetrack photographer Alex Azzopardi and to the MRC officials for their constant support.

It is 10 YEARS AGO also a first Grand National success for leading owner J P McManus and trainer Jonjo O’Neill. Jockey Ruby Wash wins his first Grand National aboard Papillon, trained 2000 by his father Ted. A major gamble on the day of the race sees Papillon 20 YEARS AGO come down from 33/1 in the morning to a starting price at 10/1. Mr Frisk records the fastest time ever in the Grand National, coming 1990 home in 8m 47.80s under Marcus Armytage. Now racing correspondent 30 YEARS AGO of the Daily Telegraph, Armytage is the latest amateur rider to win the great race. American amateur Charlie Fenwick partners 40/1 chance Ben Nevis to 1980 victory. It is the second of three Grand National victories for trainer Tim Forster. Forster, always a notorious pessimist, simply told Fenwick “to 40 YEARS AGO keep on remounting”.

A M D G Beaumont Union Review Winter 2019
A M D G BEAUMONT UNION REVIEW WINTER 2019 The Union were not the only ones that gathered in London on the 7th October: there were others dressed, for the most part, for the great outdoors and waving placards announcing ―Extinction Rebellion‖. I was not alone among those that arrived at the Caledonian with the thought that their slogan had much in common with ouselves. However, there is an obvious divergence: the rebels wish to alter society, try and create a better world as they see it although what they ask of society in the time frame is unrealistic. We, of course, have already suffered a catastrophic loss of habitat which will result in our extinction. In the meantime we are trying to preserve for as long as possible that philosophy, that approach to life that we learnt in our youth and which we try to retain and hopefully have passed onto future generations. We rebel against our demise and will do so for as long as we can. ―In the end we know there will be none to remember. Never mind. It was a good thing; and good things leave a mark‖. NOTICES Website We have a new section: “First 75 Years”. Go to History “dropdown”. It covers mainly in pictorial form aspects of School life up until 1936. There is a new edition of Vril written by Chris Fry. It may not be the happiest of subjects as we approach Christmas but to put it bluntly Chris is dying ( as in a way we all are). He is facing it positively through his strength of Faith.
