Hope my memory is not failing me here. In 1955 on the day Idle Rocks won the Gimcrack did another horse called No Worry also win. Nostalgia here: in the 50s my grandmother, who was blind, used to ask me to read out the names of the horses running that day along with any of 'Baytown' dogs running at the now-defunct Belle Vue track just a few minutes away. I do remember writing out for her a 3d ew double definitely including Idle Rocks with memory telling me the other horse was called 'No Worry'. Is old age letting me down? Thanks in advance. PS: I was 12 years old at the time and had many fun and games getting the bets on for her.

No, he didn't. Hook Money won the previous race, which was a horse with a memorable name, and was probably the day's winner that is closest in sound to No Worry.
No Worry did run on Gimcrack day in 1957, at Salisbury, but was unplaced. (Pheidippides won the Gimcrack that day, ridden, like Idle Rocks, by Doug Smith).
