Mixed Racing.
Most Australian and 'New Zealand owners would look askance it it were suggested to them that they put their good flat-racers over the jumpers, but it is different in England, where racing in the winter months is confined to hurdling and steeplechasing. Thus it is not uncommon for good English horses to combine both branches of the game, and it is interesting to note that Corpach, whose form on the flat last season was good enough to induce a buyer to pay 3200 guineas for him at the December sales, was to have made his debut over hurdles at Nottingham last month.
