EDITORS COMMENTS
Epsom Derby Day, 1929: The Unusual Tipster - Prince Monolulu Amidst the chaotic scene of Epsom Derby Day in 1929, one figure stands out as an unusual character. Surrounded by a sea of gamblers, punters, and horse racing enthusiasts, Prince Monolulu, the eccentric tipster, holds court. Dressed in a colorful outfit adorned with feathers, he confidently tips his hat to the crowds, offering his advice to those seeking luck at the races. Prince Monolulu, a well-known figure in British horse racing circles, was known for his bizarre and often inaccurate tips. Despite his questionable accuracy, he was a beloved character, and many believed that his presence alone could bring good fortune. The dead cert for the day's race might have been written on a piece of paper or a scrap of fabric, but for many, the real cert was Prince Monolulu himself. As the crowds gathered around him, the odds-makers looked on with a mix of amusement and frustration. Monolulu's presence could sway the betting patterns, and many a gambler had been known to place their bets based on his tips, no matter how outlandish they seemed. In the background, the upturned chairs and discarded betting slips serve as a reminder of the intensity and excitement of the day. The Epsom Downs Racecourse buzzes with anticipation as the horses and jockeys prepare for the big race. The strange and the unusual were all part of the charm of Epsom Derby Day, and Prince Monolulu was its living embodiment.
