WEIGHING IN AT THE RACE TRACK
Oil on canvas
48cm x 130cm (19in x 51.25in)
Lyon & Turnbull, Edinburgh, Blair Castle 15 March 2012, lot 527 (sold for £14,000 + premium)
Note: The colours on the horse belong to John Gully (1783-1863). Gully was a colourful character who became an English champion prizefighter after having been imprisoned for debt due to the failure of his butchery business. Upon Gully's retirement from the ring in 1808 he took up horse racing. An inveterate gambler, in 1827 Gully once lost £40,000 backing his horse Marmeluke in the St.Ledger. In 1832, however, he made £85,000 winning both the Derby and the St. Ledger, winning the Derby again in 1844 with Pyrrhus. In addition to his racing interests Gully became M.P. for Pontefract from 1832-1837, having purchased the nearby estate of Ackworth Park. Gully was twice married and had 12 children with each wife. He died aged 79.
