Top-hatted gentlemen accompanied by ladies in pink and girls in white lace dresses mingle in the area reserved for the privileged at this famous race event. The back quarters of the winning horse with its veins and muscle shine through its paper-thin skin reveal an athletic animal bred for speed and endurance.

  • Brian Brock, accident damage assessor, pigeon fancier and judge from Leeds.A former president of the National Pigeon Association, Brian Brock has been keeping pigeons since 1946, when his sister bought him a pair from Leeds market for his sixth birthday. Today he owns more than 70. There are hundreds of different kinds of pigeon, though they can be categorised into racing and fancy breeds. Judges assess them on such attributes as eye colour, feather composition, firmness of body and presentation. 'The flat-cap image of pigeon breeding has long gone,' Brock says. 'There are all sorts of people in the pigeon world - managing directors, owners of some of the biggest stores in the country.' He concedes, however, that as a pastime it is declining in popularity, partly because of electronic entertainment. 'I think kids might well be getting out of an Xbox what I used to get out of pigeons; they live by it, just as I lived by my birds. 'For me, the pigeons are a way of closing off from things. I sometimes sit for four or five hours, just watching my birds. I have a relationship with the individual birds, and you learn to read a pigeon's temperament. They are like athletes, you see, they have off days.'

  • Tom Alty, commentator and judge of Bartle, Lancashire chats about the quality of the pigs with a fellow judge, Stan Samuels. 'Showing pigs is a performance because you don't have a halter and rope or bridle, you just have a bat [a stick] and a board. You have to have an empathy between pig and handler, but even the good pigs are not as obedient as you'd like. At one show about 15 years ago I asked my wife, who had never taken an animal in the ring, to walk round an old Large Black sow. It was a placid pig, but suddenly there was a grunt and a rush, and the pig disappeared into the horticultural tent, which housed, among other things, a display of eggs. My wife has never been to a show since.'
