Newmarket

Michael Aspel and the experts gather in the parade ring at Newmarket racecourse and not surprisingly find many items with an equine theme: a bronze of the Classic winner Ibrahim with a 'wonky ear', a loving cup with 'Steeplechase' inscribed on it and a pearlware horse with a Yorkshire pedigree.

An ointment pot found in a fireplace, and framed ivory pictures of India bought from the dustman for 7 pounds, turn out to be bargains. And a striking portrait of an Indian prince could be worth a king's ransom if only the artist could be identified.
