Brilliant picture quality - well done. A tremendous performance from Pebbles considering she was stopped several times in the final half mile trying to get thru on the rail. Yet she put the race to bed in a matter of strides. If memory serves me right, she was 20/1 on the US tote and commentator for ITV Brough Scott persuaded the entire British crew to put their dosh on the horse. Scott won enough to fly home to the UK on Concorde. When you bet, bet like a man!

I worked for Mecca Bookmakers at the time, and nobody was surprised. She'd already won the Eclipse Stakes when many people hadn't given her a chance - first filly to win it in 100 years. There were so many good horses around at the time: Commanche Run, Slip Anchor, Rainbow Quest, Oh So Sharp, Tryptich, Damister, Palace Music, Theatrical etc - a great time for racing and they all had great followings. Oh So Sharp and Pebbles - two of the greatest English fillies of all time (I think that Tryptich was American?)!! The Champions Stake was probably the best race - everyone was talking Slip Anchor versus Commanche Run, and Pebbles beat them both. I can still remember most of the races. What an era!!!

Strawberry Road was a decent horse but a fairly ordinary animal against European horses. SR did nothing in the arc. An Aussie jockey on a US course wasn’t deemed good enough. So they put probably the best jockey in the world Steve Cauthen on the horse and still couldn’t win. A decent horse but not great

I know Strawberry Road was male and although I am in the UK myself, I remember him running in the Arc. Even if I had actually thought he was female though, it's hard to do your research when you do not know that you are wrong. People tend to only research when they know that they do not know something.
