There was great rivalry between Mrs. J. Oscar Muntz and Miss Calmady-Hamlyn, and none more so than when Dunducket and Asteroidel, (belonging to Mrs Muntz) were in the ring together.
However when Miss Dawson, who lived at Holne Park, moved to Pearrock Vean in 1928, it is thought that Dunducket became temporarily the property of Mrs J. Oscar Muntz.
