FAMOUS HORSES

Grundy 1972

The ‘Race of the Century’ was Grundy v Bustino at Ascot in July 1975. The four-year-old Bustino was assisted by pacemakers Kinglet and Highest, who went off at a six-furlong pace, but Bustino took it up four furlongs from home. The Derby winner Grundy went in pursuit and after an epic duel prevailed in a time knocking 2.4 seconds off the record. Sadly he was not a success at stud.
