The chestnut, who will be ridden by Freddy Tylicki was a two-time winner at the Carnival in 2015, including a 3/4-length success over the distance last February before going missing. “We were very pleased with his winning return,” said trainer Saeed bin Suroor. “He is a horse who always tries his best and we thought he merited a step up in grade, so this looked a good opportunity.

The Chancellor, Winston Churchill, was not concerned with the morality of gambling. His priority was to balance the budget without raising income tax or resorting to protectionist measures. This was why he had introduced a Betting Duty in 1926, a measure which would bring at least some £6,000,000 in revenue, or so it was hoped. Such a scheme, however, was regarded with great suspicion by the Home Secretary, Joynson-Hicks.

  • RHODANTHE the Phar Lap of the Australian Coursing World Published in Australiana - February 2018
    RHODANTHE The Phar Lap OF the AUStralIan COURSING World Published in Australiana - February 2018 n the 11th century, King Canute laid down his Forest Laws of England stating Iby decree that “All persons under the degree of a gentleman are prohibited from keeping a greyhound.” Joseph Banks owned the first greyhound to course Australian soil. A working dog, she brought down a small 8 1/2 lb (4 kg) male Kanguru on the 29 July 1770 on the Endeavour River, where Cook had laid up HMB Endeavour for repairs. This was the first of the species seen by the explorers “…my greyhound took him with ease tho the old ones were much to[o] nimble….”. His bitch, Lady, died a week from home on a stool in Banks’ cabin on the 4 July 1771, having spent nearly three years on board. It is believed that George Stubbs painted this kangaroo skin, later mounted in England, for Banks - an iconic Australian image acquired in 2013 by the National Maritime Museum, Greenwich, after its export was blocked.1 1.
