Australias greatest Warhorse

2018 marks one hundred years since Bill the Bastard won the Jericho Cup, a three mile race held in the Middle East in WW1. The race was brilliantly staged as a distraction to lull the enemy, allowing The Australian Light Horse to successfully defeat the Turkish empire.

The Jericho Cup will be re-run annually from the 100^th anniversary in 2018 to honour Bill the Bastard, the Australian Light Horsemen and their magnificent mounts, The Walers 1914 to 1918.

Revived in its Centenary year the race will be held in Warrnambool, Victoria on December 2^nd 2018. A song about the legend and hero Bill the bastard and the Jericho Cup

has been released by multi award winning songwriters Glen Naylor and Chris Wilson and is now available, CD Baby link on www.bonzabobbydazzler.com
