Loved John Dunlop's way of improving the handicappers into Group horses. Do you remember Sea Chimes? Around 1980 I think. Handicapper that I believe won the Group 1 Coronation Cup at Epsom. Happy days.https://community.betfair.com/horse_racing/go/thread/view/94102/23902542/can-anyone-tell-me-about-moon-madness?post_id=430814038#430814038Thanks Augustine.
