Lodge, Nevile Sidney, 1918-1989 :Based on entirely unreliable reports of Trentham influence on today's Olympic Club's Gold Cup harrier race, run to a large extent on the race course - "I wouldn't mind betting he's got a battery under his singlet!" "Making a nice run on the rails isn't he?" "If he wasn't going quite so fast he'd be just like the horses I usually back here." "Perhaps we should make sure he HAS got a broken leg first." 3 October, 1959.

There are five small vignettes of harriers in the Olympic Club's Gold Cup race. In the first three various observers comment impolitely on performance, in the fourth an official with a gun is stopped from shooting a harrier with a broken leg, and in the last we see the end of the race with the winner whacking himself with a horse whip and the rest of the harriers struggling to stay upright.

In the top left corner is a label reading, 'The Evening Post, October 3rd...1959'.
