trained Elton Ledger to win SEVENTEEN RACES, all at southwell, having got him after he'd won a seller on fibresand; remarkable gelding, once trained by the late alex scott.
she was a fine trainer, wonderful feeder and as gary wiltshire, one of The Posse, who owned him, said, 'she feeds 'em like she feeds 'erself!' great memories but where is THAT hat? |

her husband Donald left her in about '93. I had plenty of jockey bookings from her and met her a few times at the tracks. She's a top woman imo.I was delighted to see her today in apparent good health.

are you sure 'her husband Donald left her...?'
ask her good friend gary wiltshire, he might just give you a truthful account! her training of fourwalk was a master-piece and she knew the time of day, especially at five in the morning. |
