Yes Chris, Burton Lazars is only a couple of miles from me. I remember Bill Boddy ( Motor Sport ) mentioning that he always paid his respects there when in the area. Nowadays around here few residents know of Zborowski. I've often thought it odd he was buried in the Melton Mowbray area as he only spent a short time in Melton as a youngster. The family had moved there to take advantage of the excellent hunting country - Belvoir, Quorn and Cottesmore - and being social climbers, gave them access to royalty who in the '20s lived for hunting.
" The Racing Zborowskis " was published by the VSCC in 2002. A somewhat turgid and ill laid out tome, it nevertheless details the lives of Elliott & Louis, father and son.
