Handsomely framed with a black-and-white photograph of the prime minister.The voucher bearing Churchill�s signature on the �Member�s Signature� line is made out to Churchill�s son Randolph. A letter from one of Churchill�s secretaries accompanies the voucher for the Ascot races. The younger Churchill would have been going to Ascot to watch his father�s horse Colonist II race. �In 1949 the Epsom vet Major Anthony Carey Foster later racing manager for Churchill saw an unprepossessing grey colt running in France; while only half-fit the horse still finished second. Impressed Carey Foster bought him for the trainer Walter Nightingall who showed him to Christopher Soames Churchill's son-in-law. Churchill was Leader of the Opposition having been cast out as Prime Minister in 1945; Soames evidently felt that he needed a new interest and talked him into buying the grey. The horse�s name was Colonist II� he won 13 races in his career and nearly �12000 in prize money� and even reflected Churchill�s politics by running best on courses bending to the right� Churchill Centre. A fine piece of Churchilliana handsomely framed. unknown
