Local Song
“A local horse named Loch Lomond owned by Miss Cowhey of Churchtown House won in the Derby in the year 1919.”
LOCAL SONGA local horse named Loch Lomond owned by Miss Cowhey of Churchtown House won in the Derby in the year 1919. There was great rejoicing in the parish when the news was heard. The following lines were written by a local scribe on the occasion.“Long life to Quirke, the jockey
He’s the champion of the year
To Parkeson his trainer we’ll give a rousing cheer.
The same to you Miss Cowhey
You won it once before
May God direct and God protect
You’ll win a thousand more”.- Collector
