Julian Wilson Interviews Michael Dickinson.From Yorkshire and Manton to The USA.HRl

Top man was Michael amd trained most of my favourite horses from that era, Wayward Lad, Silver Buck, Badsworth Boy and Rathgorman to name a few.

A short but golden period in NH racing. 

I loved all of those horses too Mr S, but Wayward Lad was my absolute favourite being such a fine jumper. 28 wins from 55 races but sadly no wins at Cheltenham, that hill was his nemesis.
Happily lived out his well deserved retirement at MD's Maryland home.

my first gold cup day at cheltenham , 1983 ..great memories . wayward lad for me too . though you then start thinking of all the others . the mighty mac , bregawn...i know willie is brilliant and some of his top notchers likewise and of course nostalgia ,etc,  but that  really was the era that i imagine got so many of us hooked .

Michael Dickinson had a very modest sized stable, 60 odd or something close.  It makes his acheivments even more glorious.

Well said windsor.
