Wednesday 13th September Harbour Law wins Ladbrokes St Leger 2016 - Doncaster Racecourse 9 ran Distances: ¾l, shd, 10l TIME 3m 5.48s (slow by 2.48s) Harbour Lays Down Law for Mongans in Leger Harbour Law © Racehorse Photos Harbour Law, trained by Epsom handler Laura Mongan, was the surprise winner of an incident-packed running of the Group One Ladbrokes St Leger at Doncaster this afternoon. Ridden by George Baker, the three-year-old son of Lawman stayed on gamely in the closing stages to beat Richard Hannon's Ventura Storm by three-quarters of a length with Housesofparliament , trained by Aidan O'Brien, a short-head back in third. An eventful race saw the warm (4/6) favourite Idaho unseat rider Seamie Heffernan in the home straight, having stumbled when seeming to be travelling powerfully behind the leader. Harbour Law travelled well throughout the extended one mile and six furlong contest and entering the final furlong came to challenge for the lead.

The colt responded to Baker's urgings to register victory in the shadows of the post in a pulsating finish to the Classic, drawing cheers from the crowd at Town Moor. Mongan became the first female trainer to ever win Britain's oldest Classic and along with Baker, was winning her first Classic contest. The victory was also the first time since 1969 that a horse trained in Epsom has won a British Classic [Right Tack, trained by John Sutcliffe junior, 2000 Guineas] An emotional Mongan said: "It was brilliant. He is a classy horse. I'm still shocked but that was good! He was good enough and I am just so glad we brought him here. He proved to everyone that he could do it. George knows the horse and did the right thing on him, so credit to him. "It was a really professional performance from the horse. We knew he was classy and we knew he was going to go somewhere in life and today he has. It's amazing.

He looked really well in the paddock."] The trainer was also delighted to help put Epsom back on the map, which once such a fine training establishment, has experienced a spell in the doldrums in recent years. She commented:."It's a bit surreal at the moment but it was absolutely brilliant. We have a great team at home and it proves that we can do it with the right ammunition and it proves that Epsom can do it. We do very well as a team with what we have got at home. It's just great to have a horse like this and bring him here." Mongan also heaped praise on Baker who gave the colt a masterful ride. She remarked: "George knew exactly what to do at the right time and we knew coming into today that we could leave it to George as we had done everything we could at home. "We've done it. He's a great horse and I just hope we are lucky enough to hold onto him. All he has done all season is mature and grow up and he is just very exciting.

It's a great day." Mongan suggested the horse will continue to improve into his four-year-old campaign adding: "I feel now that he will be an even better horse next year. He's exciting." Ian Mongan, Group One winning jockey and Laura's husband, said: "We've had a lot of faith in this horse but did we think he would win the St Leger? Maybe. He has come up against the best of the best. From a little yard in Epsom, we are taking on the mighty power of Coolmore and all the other trainers. "Henry Cecil sat me down three or four years ago and told me that good horses make good trainers and jockeys and that is exactly what happened today. He is a good horse. We were lucky that he came into our yard and all you have to do is feed them well and train them well and they've got engines and take you to special places. This horse has taken us to the St Leger - a Classic race. No woman trainer has ever won this race and Laura has done it today. "Laura's a fantastic trainer, a fantastic wife and a fantastic mother.

We left our seven-year-old daughter Daisy at home today to come here and its her birthday and now we've justified it. "To train a St Leger winner, I can't quite believe it. I rode in the Derby and the 2000 Guineas but never in the St Leger. This means so much to me and to Laura and the family and the yard. Epsom has struggled since the rise of Newmarket and Lambourn. Hopefully, this will put it back on the map. "I can't get my head around the fact that this horse has won the St Leger. We came into today hoping he would run well and we thought we could only dream that he'd win but he has. He's such a lovely horse. "Of all the horses we have who are rated 50, 60, 70, 80, he is the easiest horse to train. This good horse has come to our yard and he has put us on the map.

He's very professional and he's a class act." Ladbrokes St Leger Stakes £700,000 added, 3yo only, 1m 6f 132y, Class 1 9 ran Going: Good, Good to Firm in places Pos 3 LEGER SECOND FOR STORM Ventura Storm took the lead before the furlong-pole and looked all over the winner under champion jockey Silvestre De Sousa until Harbour Law came with a strong run to take over the advantage in the closing stages and win going away by three quarters of a length. The 14/1 chance just saw off Housesofparliament by a short-head for second. Ventura Storm, owned by a 12-strong syndicate of the Middleham Park Racing, is trained by Richard Hannon who said: "He has run a great race and he looked like he was going to win for most of the straight but got chinned.

"I am a little disappointed not to win but I could not be more pleased with the horse - he has run a super race and the owners are delighted." Kevin Buckley, Coolmore's representative in Britain, talked about 4/6 favourite Idaho unseating Seamie Heffernan three furlongs from home and Housesofparliament's third place. He said: "I just hope Seamie is all right - I have not heard the latest but I believe he is up on his feet. The horse might have taken a false step which is so disappointing. The main thing is that Seamie is OK - he is meant to be flying over to Leopardstown. "Housesofparliament ran well - I am not making excuses but the horses are taking the top off the ground and on his last two races at Newmarket and York he has shown that he does appreciate proper good to firm ground.

That might have blunted him a little bit but fair play to Laura Mongan and her team - a great result and for George Baker too."

In 1600 the corporation tried to put an end to the races because of the number of ruffians they attracted, but by 1614 it acknowledged failure and instead marked out a racecourse. Ladbrokes St. Leger Festival The earliest important race was the Doncaster Gold Cup, first run over Cantley Common in 1766, ten years before a move to the racecourse's present location. In 1776 Colonel Anthony St. Leger founded a race in which five horses ran. This race has remained in existence and become the world's oldest classic race. During the first world war the racecourse was used for military purposes and substitute races were run at Newmarket from 1915 to 1918. Doncaster has the distinction of both starting and ending the flat season on turf. Every September, Doncaster hosts the prestigious four-day St. Leger Festival, which is acclaimed as the premier sporting occasion of the Autumn calender. Doncaster has also taken over events whose traditional homes have closed, such as the Lincoln in 1965.

More history was made at Doncaster in 1992 when it staged the first ever Sunday meeting on a British racecourse, a crowd of 23,000 turned up despite there being no betting. Today, after more than four hundred years of racing, the St. Leger is undoubtedley still the highlight of Doncaster's year. Throughout the racing calendar there is a full programme of top class racing, with flat racing in the summer and jumping action all winter. early leger Early running of the St Leger B&W Historical Jockey John Singleton with the first ever St Leger winner in 1776 Allabaculia The Lincoln THE WILLIAM HILL LINCOLN FACTS AND FIGURES A race called the Lincolnshire Handicap was first run over two miles at Lincoln in August, 1849. In 1853, a new fixture was staged at Lincoln in February and featured a race called the Lincoln Spring Handicap,run over a mile and a half and won by Caurire. The distance of this contest was reduced to a mile in 1855 and moved to a date in March.

In 1859, the two races merged to become the Lincolnshire Handicap, run over a mile in March. The Lincolnshire Handicap was run at Lincoln (AThe Carholme@) up to and including 1964. Following that course's closure, the race moved to Doncaster in 1965 and was renamed the Lincoln Handicap. Along with the Grand National, the William Hill Lincoln forms the ASpring Double.@ Jockey Dave Dick achieved the unique distinction of winning both races - he scored in the Lincoln of 1941 on Gloaming, carrying just 7st 4lb and went to triumph in the ADevon Loch@ Grand National of 1956 on ESB, who shouldered 11st 3lb to victory. During World War II, three runnings were held at Pontefract (1943-1945). The 1916 renewal was at Lingfield, while there was no race in 1917 or 1918 due to World War I.

Due to a Â£34 million redevelopment at Doncaster, the 2006 renewal was held at Redcar, while in 2007 the race was hosted by Newcastle. It returned to a revamped Doncaster in 2008. The dozen winners of the William Hill Lincoln between 1926 and 1937 (King Of Clubs (1926), Priory Park (1927), Dark Warrior (1928), Elton (1929), Leonidas II (1930), Knight Error (1931), Jerome Fandor (1932), Dorigen (1933), Play On (1934), Flamenco (1935), Overcoat (1936) and Marmaduke Jinks (1937)) gave their names to the horses used in the popular board game Totopoly. There have been only two dual winners of the William Hill Lincoln - Ob (1906 & 1907) and Babur (1957 & 1958). No horse has managed to win more than once since the race was transferred to Town Moor.

The biggest shocks came with the 100/1 shots King Of Clubs (1926), Elton (1929) and Jockey Treble (1947). Since it has been run at Doncaster, the biggest-price winner was the 50/1 shot Bronze Hill (1973) while there have been six 33/1 successes during the same period - Southwark Star (1975), Cuvee Charlie (1988), Evichstar (1990), Roving Minstrel (1995), Stone Ridge (1996) and Zucchero (2002). The shortest-price winner was Saucebox (1855, Evens). During its time at Doncaster, eigth favourites have obliged - Riot Act (1966), Captains Wings (1978), Cataldi (1985), Right Wing (1999), John Ferneley (2000), Nimello (2001), Stream Of Gold (2005) and Expresso Star (2009).

Since its transfer to Doncaster, the most successful trainer has been Paul Cole, with three wins (Kuala Lipis 1997, John Ferenely, 2000 and Nimello, 2001). Jimmy Fortune, successful in 2000, 2001 and 2009, is the only jockey since 1965 to win the race on three occasions. Richard Quinn and Jimmy Quinn are the only other current jockeys to have won the race twice, joining Scobie Breasley, Sandy Barclay, Edward Hide and Greville Starkey. The Lincoln was one of the few races to elude Lester Piggott. Since 1965, Cataldi (1985) and Babodana (2004) share the honour of having carried the biggest weight to victory - 9st 10lb. The lowest winning weight during the same period was the 7st 3lb carried by Southwark Star (1975). The Grimthorpe Chase Historical Doncaster This Doncaster race has a long and varied history but is now a prime stop on the road to Aintree.

The Grimthorpe Chase, run here at Doncaster, has had a varied and intermittent history. Some years it dipped out of the programme book completely while at other times the distance of the race has been radically altered. However in the spirit of Charles Darwin, whose The Origin of Species is currently celebrating its 150th anniversary, the Grimthorpe which may once have been teetering on the edge of extinction has adapted to suit prevailing conditions evolving into a leading Grand National trial. The eponymous Grimthorpe family have been involved in racing for many years. Ralph Beckett, the third Baron Grimthorpe owned Fragrant Mac, who won the 1952 Scottish Grand National, as well as Fortina who was victorious in the 1947 Cheltenham Gold Cup. Fortina went on to sire Fort Leney and Glencaraig Lady who emulated his feat at Prestbury Park. Christopher Beckett, the fourth Baron, was a member of the Jockey Club and director of Thirsk Racecourse.

Prior to the early 1980s the Grimthorpe was run over two miles and 150 yards, taking place on the same card as the Rossington Main Hurdle. The distance was then upped dramatically nearly doubling to a stamina testing four miles and 100 yards. The 1987 renewal, over the longer trip, included the winners of the last three Scottish Nationals in the form of dual-winner Androma and Hardy Lad. The latter won the race however third-placed Little Polveir went on to win at Ayr, reversing the placings with Hardy Lad, and followed up two years later in the Grand National. The distance was changed again to the current trip of three and a quarter miles in the 1990s when it was run as the Velka Pardubicka Grimthorpe Chase. This provided a tie-in with the famous race run in the Czech Republic (previously Bohemia) which is an exacting challenge over varied obstacles, including sections over ploughed fields.

The Velka Parubicka course was based on the Grand National course of the 1880s inspired by the Aintree success of Bohemia-born Count Kinsky on his own Zoedene. Ladbrokes St Leger | Doncaster Racecourse | Betting St Leger Ladbrokes St Leger� - 13th September, 2014 John Gosden's Romsdal was a fine third in the Investec Derby earlier in the season, where he stayed on in eye-catching fashion past beaten horses and the Halling colt may attempt to show that class staying form on Saturday afternoon when he heads to Doncaster to line up in the Ladbrokes St Leger.. Kingston Hill was comfortably clear of Romsdal in the aforementioned Derby when finishing a cracking second to Australia and connections will be hope that in the lead-up to the race Town Moor will have some rain as he relishes a bit of give in the going.

Mark Johnston's Hartnell showed his staying ability when landing the Queen's Vase and then went on to land victory in the Bahrain Trophy and will relish this test of stamina, whilst Richard Hannon's Windshear was beaten by Snow Sky in the Gordon Stakes at Glorious Goodwood and that pair are set to lock horns again and should be a factor. Forever Now and Alex My Boy fought out a Listed event last time out with the former just prevailing and they have been backed in recent weeks for the contest, whilst the likes of Granddukeoftuscany and Kings Fete are a couple of exciting double-figured prices who will prove popular with punters.

St Leger Stakes History The St Leger Stakes is the final Classic of the British flat season and is run at Doncaster towards the end of each season; it is also the final part of the English Triple Crown for three-year-old horses following on from the 2000 Guineas and the Epsom Derby .

It is perhaps the toughest leg of the Triple Crown to win for any horse who has won the 2000 Guineas and the Derby as it is run over the furthest distance, it is very rare to find a horse who has the pace to win the Guineas over a mile and the stamina to win over 1 mile 6 furlongs at Doncaster in the St Leger. The St Leger is the oldest of the classic races in the UK having first been run all the way back in 1776 when it was won by a horse called Allabaculia. Since then we have seen some of the best staying three-year olds win the race at Doncaster with perhaps the most famous of them all being Nijinsky who of course completed the Triple Crown at Doncaster when winning in 1970. Nijinsky was a sensational horse and his win in the St Leger was perhaps his most famous victory as he wrote his name into the record books, and he remains the last horse to pick up the Triple Crown.

Another St Leger record breaker is Sixties Icon who stormed to victory in 2006 in a sensational time of 2m 57.29s for Frankie Dettori and trainer Jeremy Noseda when the race was run at York. Punters are well advised to take note of the St Leger trial races through the season with the Great Voltigeur Stakes is perhaps the most telling of those, the Voltigeur is run at the Ebor Meeting at York in August and often proves to be the final prep race for some of the horses heading to Doncaster the following month. Lucarno is one horse that did the Voltigeur and St Leger double in 2007 for John Gosden and it would be no surprise to see that as a popular route this season. John Gosden has a great record in the St Leger over recent years and he also has the most recent winner of the race in his yard having won in 2010 with the excellent Arctic Cosmos claiming the win at Doncaster. Like the other classic races in the UK, the St Leger has spawned several different versions around the world with top class equivalents in Ireland and Italy among many other countries.

This serves to highlight the important of the St Leger which is one of the great races on the calendar in the UK; it continues to be a target for the big yards as well as being one of the biggest betting races of the season for punters.

The St. Leger Stakes is also the last race in the Triple Crowns for both fillies and colts, and traditionally draws a field of late maturing 3-year old runners.

Leger Stakes Betting Over the last couple of decades the St Leger has lost some of its classy veneer, and now rarely attracts the star 3-year-olds of the current season. The long distance can humble those star entries that do take the trip to Doncaster and wins by the antepost favourite are rare. Winners will often not have won a Group 1 race prior to the St Leger, and many won’t even have run over distances greater than 10-12 furlongs in their careers. While it sounds like a tough race to untangle, the trick is to look out for a horse that has won a Group race and also travelled over 15f or greater in its career – as this is a huge advantage in this race (and will usually see the horse start as a favourite). If this is not the case then a lay bet on the favourite will have given you a return more often than not in the last decade, and you can also look at taking a gamble on entries priced in the 10/1 to 25/1 price range.

Leger Stakes is a major horse race in Great Britain that takes place annually in September. It's the last of the Triple Crown horse races to be run each year and is also run over the longest distance. The St. Leger Stakes is one of the oldest horse races in the world, dating back to the 18th century. Although considered very prestigious, many owners choose to leave their horses out of this tough race because of the distance. Nonetheless, the race still attracts a high standard of horse. More details on the St. Leger Stakes are found below. Race Details The St. Leger Stakes takes place in September every year at the Doncaster Racecourse in England. It's a flat race on grass, open to three-year-old Thoroughbreds. Geldings are excluded from the race: only colts and fillies are allowed to enter. As mentioned, it's a long race and the official distance is 1 mile, 6 furlongs and 132 yards. This equates to 2937 meters, and the St. Leger Stakes is over 2 furlongs longer than the Belmont Stakes : the longest of the US Triple Crown races.

The prize pool is over £500,000, and the winner is awarded around £300,000. History of the St. Leger Stakes The St. Leger Stakes was founded by Charles Watson-Wentworth, the 2nd Marquess of Rockingham. It was his horse that won the inaugural race in 1776. At that time, he had not named the horse (it was later named Allabacullia) and had not formally named the race either. It was suggested to the Marquess that the race should be named the Rockingham Stakes after him. However, he declined the suggestion and instead named it after Anthony St. Leger: an army officer who had first proposed the idea of the race. The race was originally run over a full two miles, held at Cantley Common. It was moved to its current location after just two years, but the distance was not cut until 1813. Not much has changed since then. The race has been moved to different locations on a few occasions, notably during the First World War when it was switched to Newmarket and briefly renamed the September Stakes.

The event was cancelled in 1939 when the Second World War broke out; between 1940 and 1945, it was held at a variety of courses including Manchester Racecourse and Thirsk Racecourse. 1939 remains the only year the race was not run at all. There are a number of other races held throughout the world inspired by the St. Leger Stakes, which use the same name. These include the Irish St. Leger, the French St. Leger, the New Zealand St. Leger, and the VRC St. Leger. Betting on the 2017 St. Leger Stakes The St. Leger Stakes attracts a lot of interest from horse racing bettors around the world, and there's usually plenty of speculation about which horse will win. Although there's usually ante-post (or futures) betting markets open well in advance of the race, it's usually best to wait until nearer the time before placing any bets. In the run up to the 2017 St. Leger Stakes, we will take a look at the runners and riders and put up a betting preview on this page.

Article Details Georgian Index - Horse Races and courses Races and Courses in Britain The first horse races on established English race courses were match races between two horses run over a course of four or five miles until a horse had won twice. When the new Thoroughbred races became established, multi-day meets, breeders and bookmakers added other sporting activities to take advantage of the crowds. Cockfighting was one of many sporting events often taking place at race meets. As the atmosphere became more hectic those connected with horse racing found themselves in the position of competing for the attention of fans with the now numerous peripheral activities. A race with a large number of horses and shorter races allowing for more races per day kept the racing fan excited and offered a better investment return for breeders. Races became dashes of a mile-and-a-half, measured in eighths of a mile called furlongs, for a number of horses. Five races came to make up the English Classic Flat racing season: the Derby and Oaks, (both at Epsom Downs); the 2000 guineas, and the 1000 guineas (both at Newmarket), and the St. Leger.

Races were mainly regional competitions because race horse's had to be walked between venues with care so that they did not arrive exhausted. The journey between Newmarket and Epsom was typically five to seven days and up to three weeks between Goodwood and Doncaster. It wasn't until 1836 that John Doe came up with the idea of having coach horses pull the race horse Elis to a distant meet in a van. Epsom Downs; The Oaks and The Derby There were annual races at Epsom Downs by 1730. The course at Epsom is a dog-leg that is "all up and down with sharp corners." Sir Charles Bunbury (1740-1821), 6th Baronet of Barton, and Edward Smith Stanley (1752-1834), the Twelfth Earl of Derby, had the idea of a single race over a mile and a half for three-year-old fillies. Derby won the first running of the Oaks with Bridget on a Friday in May of 1779. The all-fillies race took it's name from Derby's home near Epsom, a former ale house, known as the Oaks.

At a party after the running of the Oaks, a race open to colts was conceived. Lord Derby and Sir Charles Bunbury allowed the legendary coin toss to decided who should have the hon our of naming it. Lord Derby called the toss. On Thursday May 4, 1780 nine colts lined up to compete in the first running of the Derby. Bunbury won the first race with Diomed. The first four races were run over a course of a dog-leg mile and carried a first prize of 1,075 Guineas. Later the Derby course was lengthened to the same mile-and-a-half or twelve furlongs as The Oaks. Newmarket Races The first recorded race at Newmarket took place in 1622. It was a match race between a horse belonging to Lord Salisbury and a horse of the Marquis of Buckingham. Buckingham's horse won the prize of the then enormous sum of �100. It was the ardent racing fan King Charles II who made Newmarket truly fashionable and horse racing "The Sport of Kings". Charles II employed gentleman-architect William Samwell to build a two-story brick pavilion for him at Newmarket.

Work began late in 1668 and were completed in 1671. He moved his entire court there from London for the spring and fall races. Prior to 1753 there were 2 races per year, of 6-8 miles in Spring and in October. From 1753 there were 7 meetings a year run over the 4 mile Beacon Course. Lord Bath wrote a description of racing on Newmarket Heath that appeared in The World Vol. 1, No. 17, in 1753: "When the horses are in sight, and come near Choak Jade, immediately the company all disperse, as if the Devil rose out of his Ditch and drove them, to get to the turning of the lands, or some other station for seeing the push made. Now the contention becomes animating: 'tis delightful to see two, or sometimes more, of the most beautiful animals of the creation, struggling for superiority, stretching every muscle and sinew to obtain the prize and reach the goal!

to observe the skill and address of the riders, who are all distinguished by different colours of white, blue, green, red or yellow, sometimes spurring or whipping, sometimes checking or pulling, to give fresh breath and courage! And it is often observed that the race is won as much by the dexterity of the rider, as by the vigour and fleetness of the animal." The Duke of Portland and Lord Lowther greatly improved Newmarket during the Regency period by eliminating old road tracks, using grazing sheep and burning to improve the smoothness of the turf, and manuring to produce a lush cover.

At Newmarket the Judges box is on wheels to be moved from finish to finish post (only at Newmarket).They proclaim winners by color. The course has been the property of the Jockey club since 1753. Betting posts were at various places on the grounds, for the 1/2 hour period between races. Winnings were paid the following morning in the town. The St. Leger The St Leger is the world's oldest Thoroughbred race. It is the fifth and final Classic of the British Flat racing season. The St Leger held at Doncaster in September is a four-day meeting. Run over two miles, a longer distance than the Derby and the Oaks, the St Leger is more a test of stamina than speed. Racing at Doncaster in York predates the St. Leger. The Doncaster Cup has been run since 1766. Men knew the open Heath at Newmarket was a great place for driving and riding horses before the Roman's arrived.

A group of sportsmen arranged a new sweepstakes race for 3 year olds over a 2 mile course at Cantley Common near Doncaster on September 24, 1776. Early in 1778 at a dinner held at the Red Lion in Doncaster for the race subscribers, Lord Rockingham suggested the race be named for the popular Colonel Anthony St. Leger of Park Hill, near Doncaster. It was run for the first time with the name St Leger in 1778. That year it was moved to the Town Moor. In 1803 the King's Plate from the defunct Burford Meeting was transfered to the St. Leger. Architect John Carr (1723-1807) built a new grandstand in 1806. For the the first 30 years of the 19th Century the St. Leger was the most successful of the race meetings. In 1813 the racing distance was reduced to 1 mile 6 furlongs 193 yards. From 1814 it was run on the St. Leger Course. The St.

Leger course was a broad straight 'galloping' track. The race has had problems and controversy. The 1819 race was run twice. There was a chase to distant betting towns when the favorite was pulled up in training. Antonio won, but the local stewards ordered a second running in which Antonio did not compete. The Jockey Club overruled the stewards and returned the title. In 1829 there was such an invasion of roughnecks and cheats that they had to be chased out of town. Ascot While Queen Anne was riding on the edge of Windsor Great Park in 1711, she noticed a natural clearing near the village of East Cote. Queen Anne ordered her Master of the Buckhounds, The Duke of Somerset, to lay out a course 'for horses to gallop at full stretch'. The Royal Racecourse was Ascot. The original course was designed by the Duke and constructed at a cost of some 606 pounds, 17 shillings and 1 pence.

The first day's racing was held on Saturday 11th August 1711 and the second on Monday 13th August when horses competed for The Queen's Plate worth �100. In 1714 racing was cancelled following the death of Queen Anne. Subsequently there was only one more day's racing before the course was closed. The Duke of Cumberland took up residence in one of the Lodges in Windsor Great Park and began breeding race horses at Cranbourne Lodge . He revived Ascot. The first four-day meeting was held in late June 1768, and has continued to the present day. George IV began the Royal Procession in 1825. Goodwood The Goodwood racecourse, called the "most beautiful racecourse in the world", is northeast of Chichester in West Sussex on the Goodwood estate, ancestral home of the Dukes of Richmond. The Goodwood Cup Races are held starting on the last Tuesday of July, and lasting four days.

The principal race is Thursday, called the "Cup Day." The course was created by Charles Lennox (1735-1806) the 3rd Duke of Richmond on a part of the estate called Charlton Downs. The first race, in 1801, was organized for the officers of the Sussex militia, of which the 3rd Duke was a Colonel, and for members of the Goodwood Hunt. It was such a success that the race was expanded and made open to the public for the second race held on April 28, 1802. The Goodwood course was further improved by Charles Gordon-Lennox (1791-1860) 5th Duke of Richmond. The Goodwood was patronized by the Prince of Wales after he left Newmarket in a huff over the Escape affair in 1791. Fleur-de-lis a mare owned by the Prince of Wales placed first at Goodwood, followed by two more of his horses at 2nd and 3rd, in a single race. The Jockey Club Rowlandson lampoons the members of the Jockey Club in circa 1790.

The print portrays: Prince of Wales (at Center), Duke of York, Duke of Bedford, Duke of Bolton, Duke of Devonshire, Duke of Grafton, Duke of Norfolk, Duke of Queensbury, and Duke of St. Albans; Lord Barrymore, Lord Clermont, Lord Egremont, Lord Foley, Lord Grosvenor, and Lord Ossory; Sir Charles Bunbury, Sir John Lade, Mr. Fox, Mr. Panton, Mr. Vernon, and Mr. Wastell. In 1750 a group of powerful men interested in horse racing met at the Star and Garter Tavern in Pall Mall where they formed the Jockey Club . In 1752 the Club acquired land at Newmarket for a Coffee Room. In 1757 a dispute at Curragh was referred to the Jockey Club in Newmarket. In 1758 the club drew up rules published by Heber. In 1762 the 19 member Jockey Club wrote complete rules of racing and sanctioned racecourses to conduct meetings under those rules. Standards were set defining the quality of races.

A registry of colors for each racehorse owner in order to distinguish runners among a field of horses was established following a resolution of the Stewards of the Jockey Club dated October 4th 1762. Eighteen owners shared seventeen sets of colors in the first list published in the Racing Calendar. Since 1814, five races for three-year-old horses have been designated as "classics." Three of these races, open to colts and fillies, make up the English Triple Crown: the 2,000 Guineas, the Epsom Derby, and the St. Leger Stakes. The other two races, open to fillies only, are the 1,000 Guineas and the Epsom Oaks. As Senior Steward of the Jockey Club, it was Sir Charles Bunbury who banned the jockey Sam Chifney for life after the suspect performances of a horse called Escape, owned by the Prince of Wales, in a race with Gray Diomed in 1791.

On 20th October 1791 the Prince of Wales' horse Escape ridden by Sam Chifney was badly beaten at Newmarket, only to run again the next day and win easily at 5-1 against. There was an enquiry. The Prince of Wales gave Chifney �200 after he was banned. Bunbury was so disillusioned that he sold almost all of his horses and did not attend a race meeting for 14 years. The Jockey Club assigned James Weatherby , the club accountant, to trace the pedigree, of every horse then racing in England. Consolidation of a number of privately-kept pedigree records added to his own research resulted in a document published in 1791 as the "Introduction to the General Stud Book" . The book listed the pedigrees of 387 mares, each of which could be traced back to Eclipse, a direct descendent of the Darley Arabian; Matchem, a grandson of the Godolphin Arabian; and Herod, whose great-great grandsire was the Byerly Turk.

From 1793 to the present, members of the Weatherby family have meticulously recorded the pedigree of every foal born to those racehorses in subsequent volumes of the "General Stud Book". "Dictators of the Turf" 1st "Dictator of the Turf"--Charles II laid down Racing Rules and made himself Adjudicator and Court of Appeal. 2nd "Dictator of the Turf"--Tregonwell Frampton appointed Racing Manager by Charles II Influential Stewards Lord George Bentinck (1802-1848)--4th "Racing Dictator of the Turf," Admiral Henry John Rous (1795-1877)--steward from 1838, public handicapper from 1855, wrote The Laws and Practice of Horse Racing Officials The Jockey club laid down the rules for horse racing and created offices to carry out the rules. Much of the race day pomp was added by the Prince of Wales during his tenure in the Jockey Club. Buglers and outriders appareled in uniforms and the bugle call all add to the pageantry.

The Clerk of Scales weighs out jockeys prior to every race and checks that correct weight, colors and number are carried. After the race he again weighs in jockeys to ensure correct weight was carried. The Bugler The bugler sounds the familiar "first call" based on the calvary "boots and saddle" bugle call as the horses step onto the track before each race.

Question: At which racecourse is the St Leger run?
Answer: Doncaster
