Blanket finish

Carnations, which are draped over the winner of the Belmont Stakes, hence it is called the Run for the Carnations.

Declarations Clerk

Emigrant - 1857 Grand National winner.

The race was run in a downpour and events on the track were largely obscured to the spectators. Jockey Charlie Boyce took the horse along the canal towpath on the second circuit to avoid the inconvenience of actually jumping any fences. The manoeuvre was pretty much acknowledged by all concerned nevertheless the result remained unchanged.

Environment Friend.....very classy horse from 20 or so years ago.

Greatwood Gold Cup

Happy Valley. The lesser known but oldest of Hong Kong's two racecourses which was built in 1845.

Lupe - 1970 Oaks winner.

From 1972-2006 Goodwood staged an Oaks Trial at its May meeting (sorry - Festival) named after Lupe even though the horse never raced there.

In 2007 the contest was renamed the Height of Fashion Stakes after a filly that did run at Goodwood winning the Lupe Stakes in 1982.
