Benjamin Disraeli
The first favourite was never heard of, the second favourite was never seen after the distance post, all the ten-to-oners were in the rear, and a dark horse which had never been thought of, and which the careless St. James had never even observed in the list, rushed past the grand stand in sweeping triumph.
Benjamin Disraeli
Here's to the man who rode the race, who took the time, who kept the time, and who did the trick.
Benjamin Disraeli
