In 1872 Bizet composed a charming series of twelve little pieces for piano duet, which was entitled ' Jeux d'enfants '. Though conceived with the utmost simplicity of melody and harmony, these pieces are delicately pictorial. The music is about children rather than for children.
During the following year Bizet took five of the pieces and scored them for orchestra. Sir Frederic Cowen conducted the suite for the first time in London at a Philharmonic Concert in 1888.

The start described by Victor Smythe , with a race-reader from Town Moor Racecourse,
Doncaster
See the plan on page 41
As the world has been told many times before, in the Radio Times and elsewhere, the St. Leger, which nowadays attracts a quarter of a million people to Doncaster every year, originated in a modest sweep-stake of twenty-five guineas proposed by a Colonel Anthony St. Leger in 1776. Only six entrants lined up for the original race, which was quite a minor feature of the usual September Doncaster meeting. The race was not given its present name until 1778.
The St. Leger is the last of the five ' classic ' races of the year, all limited to three-year-olds. It is open to both colts and fillies.
