A Roy Ullyett original cartoon artwork featuring the 1965 St Leger, signed, pen & ink & blue crayon, the subject set in a pub and featuring a newspaper headline reading ODDS ON MEADOW COURT BEATEN BY 10 LENGTHS, and a speech bubble reading AND LIKE A FOOL I SAY TO MY MISSUS ''WELL, AFTER THE St. LEGER RESULT THERE'S NO REASON WHY YOUR MOTHER SHOULDN'T WIN THE MISS WORLD BEAUTY CONTEST'' , framed & glazed, 39.5 by 31.5cm.
