Apology, the Winner of the Gold Cup at Ascot, 1876. Creator: John Sturgess
Apology, the Winner of the Gold Cup at Ascot, 1876. She was bred by that fine old sportsman the late Rev. John King, better known under his turf name of "Mr. Launde, " and is by Adventurer from Mandragora....Like all her breed, Apology, who is now five years old, was not one of the "ripe and early" sort, and her two-year-old performances were very moderate, though at the end of the season she was just running into form, and secured the Home-Bred Sweep-stakes at the Newmarket Houghton Meeting...In the winter, however, she progressed rapidly, and, when brought out for the One Thousand Guineas, had made so much improvement that she started favourite, and won cleverly from La Coureuse and Blanchefleur...after pulling up so lame on Doncaster Moor that it was doubtful if she would go to the post, she secured the triple crown - One Thousand, Oaks, and Leger...'. From "Illustrated London News", 1876
