Over $20,000 in 'irreplaceable' trophies stolen from Goodwood

Over $20,000 in 'irreplaceable' trophies stolen from Goodwood

A band of thieves is being blamed for a brazen nighttime theft of 33 historic trophies from the Goodwood estate, where the Festival of Speed and Revival are held. According to the Telegraph, at least four burglars drove up to the Earl Of March's 12,000-acre estate on Monday night in a Range Rover, whereupon they broke a window at the Kennels Clubhouse (above, upper left) and smashed four cabinets to gain access to the trophy collection. The trophies are valued at £15,000 – over $22,700 US – but are essentially priceless because they cannot be duplicated and some have significant historic and sentimental value.
