My first job in Racing was with Robert Armstrong we had a Horse called Elland Road and i think he was owned by Manny Cussins, he had the best Maiden in the Country tag but was dissapointing in the end.

Remember Blabbermouth, believe was owned by John Banks, asked Brian Clough if he could name his horse after him, Cloughie refused so he called it Blabbermouth!
Cowdenbeath springs to mind. Decent handicapper trained by the late great Ryan Price for Harry Demitriou.
