Note: Death of Mr. T. F. Scully

Death of Mr. T. F. Scully ONE of the most respected and best liked of the Randwick trainers, Tom Scully, passed away on Friday after a brief illness. Scully came from the Cassillis district, and in his young days was a great athlete. He got his first experience as a trainer with a few picnic horses that he used to prepare for the western squatters. As he made a success of his business, the McMasters and Mr. Fagan and a few others agreed to give him horses if he would so to Sydney and start training there. Soon after he came down he scored his first success, and as he was a man of incorruptible character, he soon had his stables full. Among other winners prepared by him were Marvel Loch and Noreen, but his biggest success was with Mr. T. A. Stirton's great horse Cetigne, and he also trained Maltine for Mr. J. S. Brunton, and a big list of horses for Sir Samuel Hordern. In his training methods he was one of the old school, strict with his apprentices, and he believed in standing his horses up to their work. He used to say that he did not believe in having his horses so fresh as to be unmanageable, and given a horse with the requisite strength of constitution, he could turn him out very fit. A shrewd business man apart from his training he acquired a good deal of property, and he was a model husband and father. He has passed away with the respect of all who knew him and his son, Jack Scully, who is carrying on his father's business, has a good example to follow. Truth, Sunday 12 October 1924, p. 3.
