A bit of fun for Tuesday to solve this riddle of a past class Flat horse.

Diamond like at first, Ron always finds it so.
My second you’ll get when wanted you don’t .
My third ‘it’s a place to which you go,
Sometimes secret, a snug, a haunt.
 
Got the first line Tam. Completely lost on the rest <laugh>
 
Bloody hell Janabelle, impressive

I would have got it; ob-viously <laugh>

Its good to know my brain still works sometimes. I vaguely remember reading somewhere that the Ismay's had racehorses and there might have been a Derby runner/winner in the years after the Titanic that suffered in the stewards room because of the link with Titanic.... but I could be wrong

janabelle, we’ll done!
Yes, Craiganour was the horse which was robbed of the 1913 2000 Guineas and Derby wins because of the hatred for the White Star Line and the Ismay family.
And J.Ismay owned Santa Claus.
If you’re interested , I did a post in my Down Memory Lane articles - available through the not606 Index.<ok>
