My Mary, winner of the Yorkshire Handicap, at Doncaster, 1845. Racehorse and groom: '...a chesnut Filly, three years old, with white hind legs, and a star in the forehead. She is a small mare, being under fifteen hands; her head is cleanly, with rather a projecting forehead; her ears bend back, at the tips; her neck is light, and very elegantly attached to the head. She is very perfect in all her points, and, for so small an animal, possesses a good share of power. She has a great turn of speed, and, if not too heavily weighted, it must be something out of the common way to beat her'. From &qu
