42 Approaching the end of WWI The Australian Light Horse were planning a major offensive against the Turkish Empire. In order to lull the enemy into believing nothing unusual was afoot, a race meeting was organised on the eve of the assault. The main race was called The Jericho Cup through the desert sands, with the winner being Bill the Bastard. His exploits are detailed in the book, which also includes the story of the first Jericho Cup. Each winning ownership group will be presented with a copy of the book, with the inside cover revealing a unique message, congratulating connections on the win. By Roland Perry BILL THE BASTARD
