At the races, the trainer fed a couple of sugar lumps to the horse.
The Duke of Norfolk, who was officiating, saw him do it and rushed over.
Now look here, what did you feed that racehorse?
The trainer said
Just a couple of sugar lumps your Grace. Here, I've got some more, I'll have one and you have one.
The Duke and the trainer ate their sugar lumps.
The Duke said, Mmn, sugar. Well, that's fine. Horse racing is the sport of kings- We don't want any hanky panky. Carry on.
When the Duke had wandered off, the trainer said to the jockey
Right, rein him tight until you get to the last furlong, okay? Then, let him have his head and he'll fly to the winning post. Nobody will pass him, unless it's me or the Duke of Norfolk.
