The Horse Show at the Agricultural Hall, Islington: the Prince of Wales's Park Cob, "Bob", 1874. 'The leaping feats of the last two days, the Thursday and Friday, attracted a large number of spectators. The judges of the different classes were the Marquis of Waterford, the Earl of Shannon, Sir G. Wombwell, Bart., Colonel Luttrell, Colonel Kingscote, C.B., M.P., and Colonel Ashley Maude, M.P. These gentlemen had to decide upon the merits of weight-carrying and other hunters, riding-horses, cover hacks and roadsters, park hacks and ladies' horses, harness horses, park cobs, ponies, stallions (roadsters or trotters), and to determine the best tandem and the best four-in-hand, besides selecting the best of Arab, foreign, or colonial horses. The Prince of Wales gained the first prize of £20 in Class X., that of high-stepping cobs for the saddle, with his clever cob, "Bob," which figures in our first Engraving'. From "Illustrated London News", 1874.
