The spotlight shines on Bendigo for Saturday night’s TAB Breeders Crown semi-finals and for race goers it’s a chance to also visit the History and Memorabilia Collection at Lord’s Raceway, which features some prized trots treasures including these silks.
The donation by John Phyland’s granddaughter of a faded set of racing colours (right), dark blue with yellow stars, to Bendigo’s collection has led to the uncovering, with the help of researcher John Peck and website www.classicfamilies.net, of the remarkable story of Phyland and his horses.
