Rhedycina, Winner of the Oaks Stakes, at Epsom, [in Surrey] 1850. Racehorse and jockey: '"Rhedycina" was bred by Mr. Leidiard, of Reading...She was trained by a young man named Goodwin, at Newmarket...The following details of the settling day for the Derby and Oaks are from Bell's Life in London: The principal winners were three or four of Lord Zetland's friends, to the tune of nearly £40,000. His Lordship himself, who never ventures more than a trifle upon his horses, won only £600; his coachman won £2000! and the whole of his establishment threw in for - to them-good stakes...Mr. Davis alone paid upwards of £40,000 to parties who had taken tickets for Voltigeur and Rhedycina!...One Irish gentleman won £27,000, the greater part of which has been invested in the purchase of an estate in Ireland'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850.
