Talk:Lap-dog (horse)

A fact from Lap-dog (horse) appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 10 February 2012 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that the racehorses Assassin, Hannibal, Cardinal Beaufort, Election and Lap-dog won the Derby Stakes in 1782, 1804, 1805, 1807 and 1826 respectively, making the 3rd Earl of Egremont the first-ever owner of five Derby winners?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2012/February. The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Lap-dog.

Picture[edit]

Poor old Lap-dog, a Derby winner so obscure that no-one even painted his picture, unless you know different...Tigerboy1966 (talk) 01:52, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Trainer[edit]

Trainers weren't mentioned much at this period. Looking into this. A lot of sites with "Stephenson" are WP mirrors. Galopp-Sieger has "Bird" and Mortimer et al also say Bird was Lord E's principal trainer. Tigerboy1966 (talk) 01:52, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

(horse)[edit]

Per WP:DIFFPUNCT difficult to argue that the " - " distinguishes from lap dog. Have provisionally added (horse) for WP:RECOGNIZABILITY but left redirecting to here, so as not to disrupt links. In ictu oculi (talk) 00:19, 31 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
