THE QUEEN WOULD BE DELIGHTED WITH LANDAU'S PRESENT APPEARANCE
The Queen, with an eye for a horse, would be delighted with the present appearance of her classic colt, Landau. The photograph on this page is eloquent testimony to well-being and robust health.
It may not convey the sheen on his coat, which is like polished ebony, or the compactness, symmetry and balance, The combination adds up to a well-nigh perfect model of the thoroughbred.

SANDY SADDLER WILL BE BACK NEXT MONTH AMONG THE FEATHERWEIGHTS

I have nothing whatever against the Sunderland club beyond anger at being dropped from the team after we were knocked out of the Cup by Doncaster at Roker Park, I want to make that quite clear. I admit I resented that decision, I think it was unfair, but that alone would not make me insist on a move South.
