Missing Race
editRather annoying. I am missing a race from Sir Visto's four-year-old season. Guessing at something early in the year. A Golden Pig to anyone who can find it. Tigerboy1966 (talk) 02:03, 19 November 2011 (UTC)
- He ran in the 28 October 1896 Cambridgeshire Handicap where he finished 12th out of a field of 24 [1]. Froggerlaura (talk) 04:46, 19 November 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks. Poor old Sir Visto, never the same after they "bottomed" him in the Leger in my WP:OR opinion. Here's a Golden Pig.

Film still caption
editI have captioned the pic with "Sir Visto is the horse exiting the bottom left of the frame", even though the first two horses look to be v close (certainly less than 3/4 of a length. Reasons: 1) the sources make it clear that Sir Visto made his run on the outside (stands side) 2) relative size of horse & jockey- Loates was a v small, lightweight jock. Curzon must be the horse on the rail and Kirkconnel the slightly obscured horse just behind Tigerboy1966 (talk) 10:55, 26 November 2011 (UTC)
Picture
editI like the way the picture backs up the description in the text. He was certainly no oil painting. Still, "handsome is as handsome does." Tigerboy1966 (talk) 01:55, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
