Sweetsauce, the winner of the Stewards and the Goodwood Cups, 1860. Creator: Unknown
Sweetsauce, the winner of the Stewards and the Goodwood Cups, 1860. This chestnut, which so unexpectedly burst on to the Turf world as the winner of the Goodwood Cup when they did not believe him capable, in racing parlance, of "getting above a mile, " is the property of Lord Annesley, and trained by Mr. John Scott at Whitewall, near Malton...He is by Sweetmeat from Irish Queen, and has rather a peculiar formation about his loins, which is gradually disappearing as he gets age upon him. Aldcroft has ridden him in four of his races, and Charlton and J. Snowden in the other three. His winnings, inclusive of the two cups, amount to about £2000'. From "Illustrated London News", 1860

EDITORS COMMENTS
Sweetsauce: The Unheralded Champion of the 1860 Stewards' and Goodwood Cups This evocative black and white print captures the moment of triumph for Sweetsauce, the unexpected winner of the prestigious Stewards' and Goodwood Cups in 1860. The chestnut horse, owned by Lord Annesley and trained by Mr. John Scott, defied the skepticism of the racing world by proving his ability to excel beyond a mile. Bred by Sweetmeat from Irish Queen, Sweetsauce boasted a unique conformation, with a peculiar formation about his loins that was gradually fading with age. The versatile horse was ridden in seven of his races by jockeys Aldcroft, Charlton, and J. Snowden. With winnings totaling approximately £2000, Sweetsauce left an indelible mark on the horse racing scene. This engraving was published in the esteemed Illustrated London News in 1860, offering a glimpse into the world of horse racing during the nineteenth century. The image showcases the camaraderie and skill of the horsemen, their dedication to their animals, and the thrill of competition. Sweetsauce's story serves as a reminder of the unpredictability and excitement of horse racing, as well as the enduring allure of the sport in the annals of history.
