Thats a win ^ Sportsbet please confirm or deny Zoe’s post!
where can I buy a posfer?????????????
I’ve found a few more. Phar Lap, Viewed, Catalogue, Gold And Black, etc
Light Fingers is the fingers under the bulb on the wall.
I found 1 not mentioned there is a wood in the background Possible it could be 1924 winner backwood, thanks sportsbet great fun
The jester could be Comedy King or Comic Court. The white lines top left are Straight Draw. Paying 4 places are The Victory. Even the warriors on the left could be one of Warrior, Zulu or The Assyrian. The crown on the jockeys head, King Ingoda or Kingsburgh. The blue horse could be Artilleryman but that is a bit fanciful.
I think the horse is Efficient with the blue and white silks.
Bagpipes Player = What a Nuisance
1989 – Tawrrific – Sportsbet paying 4 places sign – what a TERRIFIC idea
Plus; Warrior or Zulu. Shocking. King Ingoda
I have 57? Including all mentioned so far.
Hey Harold,
57?? We’d love to know how you’ve found extra ones and their names….

1951 Delta the symbol on the Blues player’s hat
1944 Siriurs – clouds
1873 DonJuan – the hearts between the duck & kiwi
1870 Nimblefoot – Jamacian’s feet

I reckon I found 50 but some are really cryptic
patrobus in the background, bus with patro on it
Love the “Treasure Hunt” When are all us poor souls put out of our misery with the answer to the magic 50????
1997 – Might and Power – Man lighting a light bulb in top left
Along with 46 mentioned above.
Catalogue 1938 (maybe, in front of singer)
The Parisian 1911 Eiffel Tower
Maybe Dalray 1952 scribbled on road behind duck
With At Talaq makes 50 but I can’t find it.
Is the “Find Us on the App Store” 1993 – Hallmark – as it looks like it is in silver/plantinum and the shape looks like a ingot.
Hi Michael,
I’m going to put you out of your misery. No, you can find Sportsbet.com.au in the App store…
