Framed Prints
Framed Print of Doncaster Races - the Dead-Heat for the St. Leger Stakes... 1850. Creator: Unknown
Doncaster Races - the Dead-Heat for the St. Leger Stakes, between Voltigeur and Russborough - Bolingbroke third, 1850. Voltigeur, the winner of the Derby, and whose triumph upon the great northern course was looked forward to as a dead certainty, and upon whom 6 to 4 was freely offered...was run to a level nose by Russborough, an Irish horse, hitherto unknown to fame...During the final struggle the whole compact mass heaved...with agitation; and the huge...roar of many lusty voices - Voltigeur wins! - Russborough wins!'...There are many - sage men, and of authority - who maintain that there is no such thing as a dead heat - that one horse's nose must be, if even a hair's breadth, a little more forward than the other's. Very possible: but...who is to decide upon so nice a shade of a shaving of a difference?...To the book-maker the occurrence...is perplexing in the extreme. From Illustrated London News, 1850.
