    FLAT RACING HORSES ON ICE
    NOTE:
    Galloping around a frozen lake on horseback might seem fraught with danger, but
    jockeys from across the globe journey to Lake St. Moritz every February to do just that.
    Flat races are frequentlyrun on the frozen lakes of
    Switzerland during the winter season. "Good class
    horses are sent to these meetings and are often
    ridden by well-known English and French jockeys,
    although amateurs (frequently officers of the Swiss
    Army) also ride.
    In 1925 The Preis yon Zurich (the principal race
    of this character) was won by 'Storm Cloud' ridden
    by G. Archibald. A horse named  'Old Master'
    by Gainsborough Sire of the St. Leger winner
    Solario, was ridden by Jellis but was not placed.
    Horses generally do best in these races if trained
    (or partly trained) in Switzerland.
