Summary
Solomon (Sol) Green was a major bookmaker, businessman, real estate investor, racehorse owner and trainer, and philanthropist. His connection to Bacchus Marsh was through his ownership of the Underbank Stud property which he purchased in 1924. He also owned the Parwan Park property for some time. Both of these properties were put up for sale in 1947 just a year before the death of Sol Green in 1948.
