I collect all things connected with The Brooke Bond Tea Co. I have just acquired a glass decanter which was the trophy given to the winning horse in a race at Warwick in 1975 and would like to know more about the event. The decanter is engraved "Brooke Bond Oxo, Ladies Race Warwick 1975" and has "Winner" engraved on the stopper. I have tried to find the precise date and name of the horse, jockey, trainer and owner etc. but despite searching the internet I cannot find any reference to this event. I thought there may be an AB member who has access to old horse racing records who could help me. I would be most grateful, Vimto.

There is a Ladies' Night racecard on sale on e-bay from 1975 and it shows the Brooke Bond name on the front. The listing is shown as closed but it also shows no bids so it may be you could get it still. It does show the date of the meeting so that may be somewhere to start....

Thank you Corby, I have contacted the seller and acquired the item. It may well give me the answer to my quest. Very grateful, Vimto.
Clarion, I well remember the BB tea cards and collected them myself but I am slightly puzzled as to how this will help me solve my present problem.
