Racing At Newmarket During the Early 20th Century

Racing – Britain’s National Sport Through Good Times and Bad

In the earlier 20th century, as in centuries past, horseracing, especially flat racing, was Britain’s national sport. It even surpassed football and cricket in its popularity Newspapers and cinema newsreels carried regular accounts of events, results, and personalities in the racing world and all the glamour which accompanied it.

Newmarket was, and still is, “Headquarters”, the place where the modern sport of horseracing both originated and then developed since the arrival of King James I here on Wednesday, 27th February 1604 when he was surveying his new Kingdom and its sporting opportunities Of course, there were plenty of those to be had on Newmarket Heath, especially as the Heath then covered a much larger area in all directions, up to the Fen edges and even down to Audley End near Saffron Walden

Successive royal and noble devotees of different forms of racing had helped to produce a sport which had developed into a national focus - an interest for everyone, regardless of social status, through both good times and troubled times

Newmarket’s Racecourses

Today, there are only the original, world-class Rowley Mile and the July Racecourses in Newmarket. These were originally established by the Stuart Kings to coincide with the times of their annual visits in spring and autumn and sometimes, summer Today, spring and autumn meetings take place at the Rowley Mile and in summer visitors can enjoy both relaxing and stimulating July Course running alongside the ancient “Devil’s Dyke” Earthwork

There was also a circular “jump” or steeplechase course between 1894 and 1905 built by wealthy local entrepreneur, Sir Harry McCalmont on his own land. Because it was circular, races of any length could be run on it Sadly, this course did not continue for long after Harry’s untimely death

The ‘English Thoroughbred’ breed of racehorse eventually sprang from the many stud farms that the wealthy established in and around Newmarket. This followed selective breeding with Arabian stock, known as “The Founding Fathers” The Heath’s lush turf and free-draining landscape are ideal for the many stud farms, gallops, and training areas here The training grounds alone span 2500 acres.

The wide-open Heath can easily accommodate the thousands of racehorses in training here Numbers increase greatly during the racing season to around 3000 There are less in the winter as international owners often fly their horses out of the country to train and race abroad

Railways Helped to Build Our National Sport

Of course, racing did not always seem to be for everyone. However, there are records that local farmers and their families would come to Newmarket races and sit in their carts to watch from a distance Initially, the main spectators were men of social standing but later, some wealthy women also joined the spectators

Racing did not remain the preserve of the rich and privileged because the advent of forms of affordable mass transport, coupled with social changes, enabled horseracing to become the national sport. The real initiators of this were the railways and the keen-to-be-there spectators

Roads in Britain were still bad quality, but the railways meant that it became within the means of many to get to the races without individual transport and by the latter nineteenth century they did! In fact, the railways altered the way, and speed, at which livestock moved around the country too. Eventually, race

meetings were facilitated because many more horses could be moved quickly and safely by rail At its peak, in the 1890s, Newmarket could boast 3 rail stations – unheard of for a country town at that time. One of those stations was not used for passengers but simply for racehorses and other livestock.

New Occupations and Skills

Many new occupations arose in Newmarket because new skills and knowledge were needed to deal with the quantity of horses in the area and all the tasks related to them Just to single out one new example occupation invented here; we can consider the profession of Horse Trainer

Racehorses were once called “running horses”, hence the Royal Trainer was formerly known as “The Keeper of the Running Horses”. The first such Royal Keeper in Newmarket was William Tregonwell Frampton (1641 – 1728). It is thought he began as a stable worker in King Charles II’s stable. He also served James II, William III and Mary II and Queen Anne. Frampton died early in the reign of George I.

Another first in Newmarket was the first officially recognised female horse trainer, Mrs Ellen Chaloner Ellen came from a racing family Her husband Tom was both a successful jockey and a horse trainer The family lived at Osbourne House, Newmarket. His wins as a jockey included the Derby. He died at the age of 47 in April 1886

The Jockey Club were please to grant Ellen her husband’s Training Licence. Over her career, she showed herself to be a knowledgeable and capable trainer of horses.

Ellen retired in 1894 but no other licences were granted to female horse trainers until 1966 Ellen died in 1944 She had outlived all her 7 children, and she was buried in Newmarket Cemetery

Over the years the location of her grave was forgotten. Several years ago, Members of a research group from Newmarket Local History Society were conducting a survey of the graves in the cemetery and their locations. One of them located Ellen’s grave. The Newmarket Journal initiated an appeal to buy a proper headstone for the grave. The headstone can be currently seen helping people to locate Ellen’s grave.

A race during the Guineas Festival in 2023 was renamed in honour of Ellen

Today, there are around 80 racehorse trainers in Newmarket Between them they train a total of some 3000 racehorses in the peak season.

Until the 20th century it was the custom that horses were always entered in the male owner’s name.

The First World War (1914 – 1918)

An international conflict which cost the lives of over 10 million military personnel as well as many civilians.

Unlike many European countries, by the time the First World War (WWI) loomed, Britain had almost dispensed with cavalry-type warfare There were cavalry regiments remaining in the British Army, but these mainly used horses to pull heavy gun carriages or for logistical purposes

Many European nations still had National Studs, where the best horses of different breeds were bred for a variety of purposes However, Britain did not have a National Stud at that time, unlike today.

Therefore, a decision was taken by the Government to requisition a large number of horses fit for a number of different purposes The mechanised transport of 1914 was simply not advanced enough for all the tasks it would be required to do Among these horses were significant numbers of “lesser” thoroughbreds No-one could have known how many of the European battlefields would become riddled with trenches for soldiers to conceal themselves in or, at times, fields of sodden mud,

The early machines of WWI could not cope with such conditions, but horses were versatile and adaptable. In 1917, at the Battle of Passchendaele, men at the front were made to understand that, shockingly, “At this stage (of battle) to lose a horse was worse than losing a man because after all, men were replaceable while horses were not”

The Royal Flying Corps at Newmarket

World War I was the first time that the British Army had any kind of air attack and defence capability, although unpiloted Barrage Balloons, full of gas, were tethered in various places around Newmarket

The Royal Flying Corps (RFC) was the new air arm of the British Army Initially, early in the war these lightweight wooden ‘planes made excellent physical and photographic reconnaissance tools, a new introduction to warfare Gradually, encounters with enemy aircraft led to aerial battles Later in the War the RFC bombed enemy targets such as camps, transport networks and industrial targets.

In April 1918 the RFC was amalgamated with the Royal Naval Air Service forming the RAF (Royal Air Force). The RFC’s motto was ‘Per Ardua Ad Astra’ (“Through adversity to the stars”) which was also adopted by the RAF when it was formed

An RFC base was established on Newmarket Racecourse early in WWI and, but the Government permitted racing to continue throughout the war, seeing it as a boost to national morale and a distraction from the horrors of war

The Derby was moved from Epsom, which had become a vast military camp, to be run in Newmarket for all four years of the WWI conflict. Collectively, these races, and the Derby’s run in Newmarket during World War II, are called “The New Derby”

Newmarket itself, to a lesser extent than in WWII, became a military base. Photographs, held by Newmarket Local History Society, show the vast camp of soldiers on the Newmarket Jockey Club training grounds The troops were accommodated in simple, small, white tents.

In between the Wars

During the 1920s and 1930s life appeared to return to a semblance of what it had been before 1914 The First World War had been billed as “the war to end all wars” and people wanted to believe that, but so many relatives and friends had been lost by those who remained.

Relationships between countries had also altered because of that, together with the international implications for many things, such as the increasingly international horse breeding and racing industries It was all fresh and raw and people needed time to heal, to process and to accustom themselves to this new life and changed world

People of the 1920s both clung to tradition but also sought, or struggled, to embrace many new things, such as the changes in the roles of men and women within society which had been forced upon the country by the Great War. For example, large numbers of men had been spared death but then had returned to Britain disabled physically and / or mentally, due to the horrors of the battlefields and trenches. Whole families had to adjust.

Many women had not fought but they had experienced the horrors of nursing the life-threatening physical and mental wounds of the soldiers

Women’s roles in society were seismically altered to fill the gaps left by absent menfolk in almost all industries In Newmarket specifically, this could also mean caring for stables, for thoroughbreds or riding out on them In the rest of society women had similarly taken on the challenges wherever they were required but now, many people just expected them to step aside and give their jobs back to men

By November 1918 the political resistance had finally ebbed against allowing women over age 21 to have the vote in England, Wales, and Scotland. Ordinary men, who did not own significant property, were also allowed the vote The Representation of the People Act, 1928, also meant that women could finally be Members of Parliament.

This had all affected the ways women thought and dressed. Clothes became less bulky and more practical. In the stables, and when women rode out, practical jodhpurs or trousers became standard dress Long gone were the side saddles and riding habits.

Many women also sought to have new roles in life other than marriage, homemaking and raising children This was, in part, due to the loss of many husbands or fiancés during the War.

The surviving men who had served their country in the War were not unchanged either They had seen many unimaginable horrors and large numbers were physically and / or mentally damaged. Life became a challenge for many individuals and families

Horseracingwasapopularentertainmentandpartof“normality” Ithappened in 1925, that for the first time ever a woman won the annual Newmarket Town Plate race, instituted by King Charles II in 1665 “forever”. This was Miss Eileen Joel riding “Hogier” Mrs Walter Earl was the owner. It was so momentous at the time that it appeared in cinema newsreels, although it is a local race with a small prize. The prize includes the famous Newmarket Sausages!

1927 FAY TOY Miss D Saunders (owner & rider)

1928 BOGUS Miss Iris Rickaby (rider) Mr Walter Griggs (owner)

The Town Plate is always run on the Round Course, which is part of the original Racecourse. The Town Plate is the only race run there, starting near the National Stud.

Early cinema often ran newsreels showing important races. The modern viewer sometimes finds the footage shocking, such as in these 1920s Newmarket Town Plates The start is roughly organised, without gates. Unlike today, all the riders competing, both ladies or men, wear no body protection, nor helmets, instead they have knitted berets, soft caps or similar, on their heads. Of course, as in other races, men were usually the jockeys and owners until the 20th century.

Over the next 3 years more women enjoyed success in the Newmarket Town Plate until a male winner, Mr Frank Simpson, was successful for the next 3 years. After this, new female winners also emerged.

The 1930s

By the 1930s people were hoping that life had really returned to normal, and Newmarket had become a racing town again with plenty of visitors, especially for the races and the twice-weekly markets. Food had gradually become more plentiful, but many people grew their own fruit and vegetables.

There was the added attraction of 3 cinemas in town at a time when television had not even been invented Apart from the newspapers and radio, the cinema was the only source of news broadcasts, even if they were a few days old The moving pictures brought everything to life.

Other sources of entertainment came from a variety of social clubs or from Church (which most people then attended) and its social events

Newmarket was well-accustomed to accommodating international visitors. Perhaps its finest hotel was the large Carlton Hotel on the High Street, where Boots now stands Newmarket had always had plentiful water sources at that lower end of the High Street In fact, the Carlton had its own spring under its foyer, which fed its fountain Many shops at that lower end of the High Street had water pumps in their cellars for times when the springs rose inside them. Some still do

Many years ago, I learned that Fred Astaire, the film star, had visited Newmarket and stayed in the Carlton. I wondered why? I discovered that, in fact, he was a horseracing fan. He also had a good friend in Newmarket, who was also the Trainer for his racehorses here I believe Fred also had more racehorses in the U.S.A.

Some time ago, the mystery was solved. Several letters came into the possession of NHRM They were written by Fred Astaire himself

However, there were dark clouds on the horizon which could not be ignored The Nazi party was on the rise in Germany but in a way, the British people simply could not believe it after all they had already been through.

However, the British Jewish community were well aware as they had relatives and friends in Europe making them aware of the growing crimes of the Nazis. The wealthy Jewish banking family, the de Rothschilds, were present in several European countries and were only too aware of the rising Nazi persecution around them

The Second World War 1939 - 1945

An RAF Base was re-established on the Rowley Mile Racecourse in 1939, at the beginning of World War II (WWII) It closed again in 1945, after the end of the war

Of course, in a time of war, the Government can do many things which it cannot ordinarily Therefore, it gave no notice that the RAF would be reestablishing an air base on the Rowley Mile. The ‘planes simply landed.

Local Legend has it that the, then, Jockey Club Agent of the Heath, Captain Cecil Marriott, rushed out of his house, Portland Lodge, waving his walking stick and telling them to “Clear off the Heath!”. He would have expected to be obeyed He had a fearsome reputation for protecting the Jockey Club’s turf

Another local story concerns a high-ranking U.S. officer who complained to a senior gallops’ foreman that the Luftwaffe might attempt landings on the spacious Heath. The polite reply was, “Oh, Mr Marriott would never allow that.”

Initially, aircrew and other staff had to sleep in the (old) Rowley Mile Grandstands until the airbase buildings and accommodation huts had been built. The grass runway strip, which the American officer had feared would provide easy access to the Nazis, is still there today and it is now used for small, private ‘planes on race days Some of the more successful jockeys are known to fly between different race meetings, held miles apart on the same day, to compete in different races.

All wartime airfields were divided into two categories and the airbases either belonged to Bomber Command or to Fighter Command In Newmarket’s case, it was Bomber Command and it reported to Mildenhall. Snailwell airbase was in the same local grouping,

In fact, there were many small air bases scattered throughout East Anglia, such as nearby Bottisham, and planes from different Commands were free to land at different airbases, with permission. There are records of Spitfire fighter planes landing in Newmarket to refuel, for example.

It was necessary to defend East Anglia well as, not only was it the closest part of Britain for Nazi fighters and bombers to reach but it also presented easy access into Europe to strike the enemy.

As it had in WWI, racing at Newmarket continued throughout WWII There were a number of reasons for this It sent messages of continuing normality to the nation and to the enemy. Churchill was himself a racing enthusiast He knew that the papers which sold the most, or sold out, were those reporting sports, especially the racing results. This boosted national morale as people saw some aspects of normal life were continuing. They were far from being beaten yet.

From 1940 food was strictly rationed and the country had to be re-educated about making do with what they had, growing, and cooking their own food and recycling all sorts of items, especially clothes. It became illegal to destroy cardboard, paper or bones from food. All these were collected and recycled Also, everyone had a ration book which was strictly adhered to so that,

regardless of wealth, everyone had fair shares of whatever food was available. Everyone had identity papers and had to carry them with them There seemed to be a great fear of spies and many rumours about such people circulated in town Of course, at this time, Newmarket was one vast military and Air Force base, connected to the many in East Anglia and across the entire country. In fact, rumours of spies in Newmarket abounded with reports of lights on the Devil’s Dyke at night. These caused the Local Defence Volunteers / The Home Guard to patrol there at night for some time.

The Second Bombing of Newmarket in World War II

Of course, there was a lot of military activity, of different kinds, in Newmarket, and its airbase on the Racecourse, throughout World War II Perhaps the worst-ever bombing raid on Newmarket occurred Tuesday, 18th February 1941 To this day the reasons behind it remain mysterious They could never be completely confirmed from either British War Records or the Nazi Bundesarchiv

The bombing occurred in the early afternoon. It was a sunny market day when the lone Dornier 17z raider flew in from the Clocktower end of the High Street, travelling its length and dropping 10 or 11 (one did not explode) bombs, depending on your viewpoint. The last ones took out the front of the White Hart but fell short of the Memorial Hall, which is set slightly back from the street To this day, if you look up at the front of the Hall you can see damage in the bricks inflicted by flying debris

No-one knew (?) there was a top-secret meeting of military officers taking place inside the Hall at that moment. A direct hit would have changed the course of the entire War. However, no-one was hurt there but there were several casualties elsewhere in the town

The bomber flew out to the Racecourse and began banking to turn back towards the town according to eyewitnesses. Was he about to attack the other side of the High Street? Did he know he had missed his target(s)? Was he just looking to see what he had achieved?

What he had not counted on was that there was a Wellington Bomber taking off from RAF Newmarket (on the Rowley Mile) for a training exercise The pilot was John “Benny” Goodman, who already had a great deal of combat experience

Some years later I interviewed “Benny” about this experience He could recount, minute by minute, what had happened and assured me that he and his crew had shot the Dornier 17z and it had turned away from the town and fled towards Thetford. It was probably the same Dornier brought down by an ‘Ack-Ack’ ground gun crew in Norfolk.

Benny said that this was the only known occasion when a Wellington Bomber was used as a fighter ‘plane! I believe that The Wellington crew were all heroes and probably saved Newmarket and / or our military officers from further disastrous and murderous attack. It could all have been very different if the RAF airbase had not been on the Rowley Mile.

Sadly, just as this story was covered over and lost for many years, these deeds were almost forgotten due to wartime secrecy. The story was almost forgotten until Newmarket Local History Society researched the incidents, recorded survivors’ testimonies, and appealed for more eyewitness accounts Two books have been published about these events: ‘One Afternoon in February’ and later, ‘The Bombing of Newmarket’. The latter is in the process of updating for republication.

TODAY’S ENTERTAINMENT

2023: NO CORRESPONDING RACE

Sheepskin Cheek Pieces worn first time by No 9. Stewards Note: COMPLETELY RANDOM: Following its run on 4/5/2024 it was reported that the horse was hampered at the start.

Probable S.P’s: 3-1 Woodhay Wonder (GB), 5-1 Garfield Shadow (IRE), 7-1 Jehangeer (IRE), 15-2 Al Shabab Storm (GB), 9-1 Jimmy Speaking (GB), 14-1 Watch MyTracer (IRE), Completely Random (GB), 16-1 Warm Spell (IRE), 25-1 Cargin Bhui (IRE), 33-1 The Coffee Pod (IRE)

Typically one of the stronger 3-y-o sprint handicaps and WOODHAY WONDER is fancied to make it 3 in a row in big-field contests over C&D She looks a smart sprinter in the making and clearly goes really well here. Jehangeer looks the type that could develop into a high-end handicapper for Kevin Ryan and is interesting on his return. The unbeaten Garfield Shadow and hat-trick-seeking Jimmy Speaking are a couple of the other obvious players

2023: NO CORRESPONDING RACE

RAIMUNDA: Following its run on 6/8/2023 it was reported that the trainer could not explain the poor run. ZIGGY’S PHOENIX: Following its run on 1/5/2024 it was reported that the horse was never travelling.

Probable S.P’s: 5-1 Sunfall (GB), 15-2 Royal Velvet (GB), 9-1 Astral Spirit (GB), 10-1 Heartwarmer (GB), 11-1 Local Music (IRE), 14-1 Victoria Falls (IRE), 16-1 Beveragino (IRE), 20-1 Raimunda (USA), Bint Al Daar (GB), 22-1 Adelabella (IRE), 25-1 Speriamo (GB), Dreamrocker (IRE), Machiavellian Lady (GB), Astronomica (GB), 28-1 Toxic (GB), 50-1 Cariad (GB), 66-1 Ziggy’s Phoenix (IRE)

A competitive fillies’ event to conclude. ROYAL VELVET did it quite comfortably on handicap debut at Newcastle so a 3lb nudge may not stop her with further progress. Sunfall jumps off the page as a twice-raced winner from a top yard and is a potential big threat, particularly if the betting vibes are strong. More-established types Astral Spirit and Victoria Falls also make the shortlist.
