Crimson Embers returning to regain his title in the 1986 Stayers, when he should have been retaining it and making it a hat-trick of victories, oh Stuart why didn't you give evidence and object...!

Moscow Flyer 2002 Arkle after that performance I knew he was a horse to be followed in future 2 mile grade 1 Chases.
Dunguib by far best speed rating going into 2009 bumper race and yet freely available at 7/1 in the morning and I certainly availed by myself. Won in very pleasing sytle. |

Cork,would that have been because the mare Rose Ravine was from the yard? I was only young then had a tenner on RR and £2.50 R/F with Embers. Was Mooney or Morshead on RR?
|

By:
ph, very much so, same owner as CE as well and a victorious mare in the race was worth a lot more than a win for CE, the man on board RR that day was Ricky Pusey
|
|
By:
I'd forgotten him, just wasn't convinced about Mooney so thought it had to be Morshead.
|
|
By:
and couldn't have been Morshead really,wrong old school yard!

By:
That French Holly video is miles better than I remember from the time.
14 lengths and another huge gap behind placed horses. Mildly pushed out, hands and heels to the line. |
