Grip, Limited 6 TIIK IJritisli nation is, witliout a doubt, the most sportsman- like' in till' world, and we, the ])eo])le of its hirgest and most intiuential colonv. are glad to feel that we are no whit behind the mother country in our sporting instincts. Tlie Horse is one of our great delights and horse-races, horse- shows and fairs alike bring foith an a<lmiring and ever-increasing throng of fair women and brave men. Canada seems to l)e forging ra})idly to the front as a horse- breeding country, and Canadian horses aie accjuiring, on this con- tinent, in Great Britain, in P^urope and elsewhere, an enviable repu- tation for endurance and speed, as well as for general excellence. While the rank and file of Canadians have doubtless done much to keep alive the sporting instinct by their enthusiasm and encouragement, the pre-eminence of Canadian horses is due mainly to the efforts of a few men and women who, by the exjjenditure of time, energy and money, and the adoption and maintenance of clean, honorable and sportsmanlike methods, have kept horse-life in Caiia<la up to the very highest standard. It is to commemorate these men and women and their efforts in the cause of the Horse that this book is published, anil we feel that the inipoitance of their work demands the l)est and most finishefl setting. INTRODUCTORY AS loiii^' as tlic liorst- lasts, and tliat will l)e assuredly for ever, racinp; will exist. It is in the iiatinc of man to want to test the stren()th. stamina and speed of the lii^lit horse, and it is impossible to imayine that any sane and healthy person, watehing the nohle animal strive his utmost to cover the ground as fast as possible, will fail to admire the wonderful courage that he displays. Racing is hy no means the "amhlinii' oame that ultra-moralists choose to think it is, and wisli to make everybody else believe. Tlu-re are more people, far more people, who go to the race- course to .see the horses run, and for the joy that it gives them to see the noble animal putting forth all his jjower to win the race, than there are to gamble on his chances. There are, also, other people who think that the suggestion that racing is encour- aged for the sake of improving the breed is a myth. It is nothing of the kind, for there is iu)t a ty])e of horse that is not improved b\ a dash of thoroughbred Ijlood. It would be far l)etter if the people who .so bitterly oj)j)Ose racing would iiKpiire into the thing, and on actual experience base their opinions. The man Avho condenms a sport that delights hundreds of thousands of his fellow-creatures without making in- (piiry or investigation is fairly entitled to l)e considered more fooli.sli than wise. J^ike all other nuindane things, racing is lial)le to abuse; sometimes it falls into undesirable hands and is mad(> an instrument for money-getting, at all hazanls and in any way. I5nt such a thing is the rarest exception and not bv any means the general rule. Uacing properly conducted, conducted as the chief chilis in all conntrii-s conduct it, is a health-giving and manly |)astime, which gives the l)usy merchant and professional man surcease from worries aiul care. It gives him rest in mind and peace in bodv. It makes man strong and courageous and benefits the entire communitv. bv creating a love for the animal and broadening the minds of men. So far as gambling is con- cerned, people who ai'c bent that way will speculate on anything: they will make the most innocent things instruments to gratify their inclinations. Hut considei'ing the tremendous mimber ol' p(()|)lc who have a lo\(' for this |)astime, there is not half the daniao'c and iniiii-\' caused b\- wau'criuii' tliat thei'c" is in man\' ollu'r thiuiis that the woi-jd chooses to considci- legitimate. TTou('\( r, it is not the object of this ai'ticle, or of this book, to preach a sermon, [{alher is it the desire and wish to encourage and piomote the interests of the ])astinu' that has existed from the dark ages, and will exist as long as the world shall last, Puri- tans to the contrary, notw ithsianding. It iirings out the iiest (jualities of tlie horse 01 Lovers of the Horse and orives him a courage tliat cannot l»e got in any otlur way. In (";inada, of late, the sport has made tremendous progress. Time was. indeed, when it was controlled entirely bv men whose first ohiect was monev-makinir or Tnonev-oetting. It is now. in Montreal. Toronto. Quel)ec. and other places, in the hands of men whose object is si)ort first and dividend-getting second. These men arc actuated by no selfish object, but with the desire to promote the sport of the people and to give the country better horses. All civilized countries in the world recognize the value of the 'I'horoughbred. It is pre-eminent in the military horse, the carriage horse, the saddle liorse and the hunter; the higher the type of thoroughbred is in the country, the better will be the "•eneral oualitv of tiie horse. He is not exactlv ail the foundation of the entire horse kiufdom. but he is a verv lariic iiortion of it. He is the root of the standard-bred, of the trotter and pacer, and has not a little to do with the development of the hackney. If this country is not as far advanced in his breeding, it is because it is a country of |)ractically recent discovery. .\nd yet wlu-n there were various British military sta- tions here, there was plcnt\ of goo<l racing, and. consivinently. plenty of good horses and handsome horses. l-"i-oni the militarv racing of far-gone days has dev('lope(| the racing of to-day, when the s|)ort is sustained li\ so admirably managt'd a club as the Ontario Jockey (dul). so enterprising an organization as the recently-formed Montreal Jockey ("lub, and bv the well-managed and fairly-conducted meetings of the Hamilton and Highland I'aik Clubs. Some people think there is an excess of racing in the country, but at the worst it leads to a large ex])en<liture of money and gives employment to many men and l)Ovs. Although the enterprise of Messrs. Seagram. Hcndrie. Davies. ^lackenzie, d('velo|icd beaters, a 1 )vment, Dawes. ( 'arrnthci-s. I'helan. el ul. has not any world many liorse entitled to take rank has been raced in ('anada and has gone further afield to prove that his (|iialil\- is not inferior to that of horses previously classed iinicli higher. I'or vears Mr. Seagram has been the largest lireedcr and has spent many tens of thousands of df)llars in giving the people |)leasure and in racing for the pure sport and love of the thing. Ilie late \\ in. Ilendiic did the same, and so are his sons doing to-dav. Mr. Roltert Davies is another warm snp|ioiter of the interests of liji'-h-cla.ss horse breeding. So. too. was the laic .\. W . Mackenzie and the late Nathaniel Dvment. So. too. arc- IIk Ir successors. R. J. Mackenzie and John Dynient. So. too, are Sir Montagu .\llan, of Monticah James ( ariiithei-. of Montreal and ('.

'I'here are men. ihank (lod. connected Lovers of the Horse vii with the .s])ort whom tlie most strict camiot arouse of taking any (iishonoral)le advantage or of Ijeinu' unworthv in thouiiht. Yvhv \>\ rear their eti'orts are hearing frnit and the game is becoming cleaner and more wortliy of patronage. Financially the sport was never stronger than at tlie ])resent time. A few years ago a thonsand dollar pnrse or stake was considered extraordinary; now. if three thonsand and five thonsand dollar stakes are not mimerons, there are at least snfficieiit of them to wai'rant the keeping of a good horse especially to strive for them. If the King's Plate, rnn off annually at the WoodMne. Toronto, and of the estimated valne of five thousand dollars, has not done all that might have been expected of it, it has at least elevated the character of the sport and lienefited, in so doing, both horse and man. It may seem an extravagant statement, but it is more than probable that nearly half a million of money was raced for over the running and trotting tracks of Canada during the year 1907. And tliere is every pros])ect that, with the growtli of the population and conscMiuent increase of the sport-loving coinninnity.

  • Mumblings from Munchkinland 5
    Mumblings from Munchkinland #5- By appointment to HRH the Sovereign-Ruler of the Sefarid Empire and Most Noble Purveyor of 1\11 its Territo~ies, August Convenor of the Tyrolian Assembly, Adjudicator Emperticus at the_ High Court of Maar, and owner of Peop,-a small dog. Mumblings_from Munchkinland -- the only Uest Australian fanzine published in Pakistan! OF MOUNTAINS AND METEORS Summers in Peshawar are not pleasant. Temperatures soar into the 40s in May and then hang up there until mid-way through September. The best escape from the heat is to go north, towards the high peaks of the Hindu Kush, and that's exactly what we did recently. There are three major valley chains in northern Pakistani; the westernmost one is Chitral. There are two ways to reach it. One is to travel for 15 hours along winding roads in an ornate but cramped bus driven by a mad (in one sense or another) Pakistani, eating meals in shabby roadside "diners", being deafened by the bus horn and choked by dust. The other way to get to Chitral is to fly in. This takes half an hour in an air-conditioned Fokker Friendship, with a light snack served en route and spectacular views of the mountains all the way. We decided to fly in. The only catch with flying is, weather conditions can turn nasty very suddenly, resulting in last-minute cancellations. Although this happened to us, we made it off the next day and the flight into Chitral was spectacular, swinging in between high mountain peaks capped with snow, with tiny villages clinging to the hillsides.

  • Equestrian 22
    Travels on a Marwari Horse in Rajasthan by Henry Dallal There are many holidays and trips to take where you are treated in first class style. There are very few however where you are immersed in cultural splendours and treated as if you are royalty. Such was the overall theme of my visit to Rajasthan, on a horse safari with Kanwar Raghuvendra Singh Dundlod from the house of Dundlod, also known as Bonnie… RIDING HOLIDAY that almost meet at the ends, these beautiful horses, throughout an almost forgotten history, were bred as the ultimate power warhorse, displaying agility, endurance and good character to swiftly cover long distances in the hot desert. ROYAL WELCOME On our arrival to Dundlod, we were overcome with the splendour of a royal welcome, being showered with flower petals. Two fully decorated camels, and dancing horses, drummers, musicians, garlands, and the Hindu ritual of rice pressed on our foreheads by Bonnie’s team welcomed us newcomers to the fort which has been owned by his family for generations, set in a village which has not changed much through time. HORSEMANSHIP Home to some 50 horses, the Royal Equestrian and Polo Centre and Marwari Bloodlines Stables at Dundlod is where Bonnie keeps his Marwaris. An exciting and riveting display of horsemanship and tent pegging by him and his team was played out on his grounds, which hosted the world Tent Pegging Championships in 2000. Having been on numerous expeditions by horseback this was by far the most colourful and to learn that it had been voted as best riding outfit by Equitour USA was no surprise.

    1 2 SHAKTIMAN 35th All India Police Equestrian Championship & Mounted Police Duty Meet Introduction The Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel National Police Academy had broken fresh ground by organizing an All India Horse Show in 1970 at Mount Abu. The idea and the show were well received and in the subsequent two years the shows were keenly contested by Mounted Teams from Delhi, Haryana, Punjab, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat, National Police Academy and the B.S.F. Beautiful trophies were donated by equestrian minded donors for the various events. The show could not be held during the years between 1973 and 1976. However in 1977 and 1978 the B.S.F Academy, Tekanpur successfully staged the show at the behest of the Director, SVP National Police Academy. This year, the SVP National Police Academy, Hyderabad has itself decided to stage the Championship to its place of origin and thus the SHAKTIMAN 35th All India Police Equestrian Championship & Mounted Police Duty Meet in its own premises at Shivrampalli, Hyderabad, Telangana.
