START OF THE 1974 VIRGINIA GOLD CUP, BROADVIEW COURSE, WARRENTON The legendary Virginia Gold Cup is the equivalent of a classic in American Steeplechasing. After the fifth trophy was retired by owner Leeds Don, a rivalry arose among Paul Mellon, Senator John Warner, and Dr. Joe Rogers to gain the sixth trophy with the requisite three wins. The 1974 renewal of the race saw Warner's two-time winner Annual Meeting line up against Mellon's Mongogo. Annual Meeting pulled up lame after fence ten, and Mongogo went on to win. Eventually, with all three owners having two wins, Dr. Rogers gained the trophy with a win in 1984.
