Attributed to Henry Alken junior (1810-1894) BENDIGO WITH TOM CANNON UP AT NEWMARKET a hand painted terracotta charger, diameter 30.5cm., 12in. Bendigo won the first ever running of the Eclipse Stakes in 1886 which carried a staggering prize fund of £10,000 put up by Leopold de Rothschild. Until this time the Derby was the most valuable race in the Calendar, but was worth about £4,600 in the same year.
