SCURLOGUE CHAMP AT SHAWFIELD

he opened up very very short about 7s on and drifted, i think best price was 2s on with George Shaw, I was at the top bend, I know we knew his running style, but it was incrdedible the ground he made up. Loved Volant suzy but aglish mandy was the best staying bitch at the track in the 80's.

not shawfield but sheffield , saw him make about 20 length up 2 bends from home , he won about 2 length if my memory serves me right going away. astounding

cammy i am refering to Scurlogue Bookmaker on track used to shout 20s the fav when it could not win he was tailed off up the first straight sure enough he shouted and i was there waitin 20 tenners down to the fool he laughed

he was never 4/5 and millar never had a book at the track that evening, hope this helps, and the race was 730m

Tom that night we got a fortune every time we bet him they all kept punting the bitch great night. Week later went over to she park with ken to buy a dog .on the boat over having breakfast I said to ken where you put  the money he said I've left in the boot from last night £25k  he says it be alright

cammy when i went to ashfield late sixtys it would hav rivalled bolton bob hotchkiss was handicapper grass track jimmy donald owned it always went back for open races right up to closing

they run out of money backing him that night

they could not believe how much they got on and there was still a price on board, tailed off and burst the watch, hoot , hoot

the locals were screaming the place down when the bitch cracked out, oi oi, oi oi, gulp, what's  that thing that went past in a blur

In a lot of his races we had to put two rags in to fill the race two black dogs just to keep every one on there toes
