The year is 1968, and amidst the thunderous cheers of an electrified crowd at Epsom, Sir Ivor charges towards victory with jockey Lester Piggott atop his back.

With a remarkable record of 8 wins from 13 starts on flat races, this magnificent thoroughbred has left an indelible mark on the sport. This particular race was not just any ordinary event; it was the prestigious Derby.
