| Description: | GAZETTE "Olympia. The International Horse Show celebrates its 'coming-of-age' with parade of Grand National Winners & famous Hunt's Packs of hounds." Olympia, London Man in Mayoral regalia (probably Lord Mayor of London Sir Percy Greenaway) climbs into carriage. The carriage travels through the streets. A young man on a bicycle rides behind it. The carriage parades around the arena of Olympia. The Lord Mayor gets out to applause from the (fairly sparse) crowd. Race horses are paraded around the arena - they are all previous winners of the Grand National including Shaun Goilin (1930), Music Hall (1922), Master Robert (1924), Grackle (1931), Sprig (1927), Ally Sloper (1915), Poethlyn (1919), and Shann Spadah (1921). Riders and hounds from a fox hunt ride up and down the arena. A horse takes various jumps as part of a horse jumping event. | |
