    Answers to Quiz...

    1. Bill Marshall- Americas, Australia, Europe, Africa. As far as I know , the only trainer to win on four continents- unless Weld has done so.
    2. Dermot Weld- Go and Go.
    3. Norah Wilmott- Pat.

    Zen, well done, but which race has Weld won in Asia?<ok>

    Only 2 stallions have ever sired 2 Royal Ascot juvenile Group or Listed winners in a year
    (a) name the stallions
    (b) name the years
    (c) name the winners
    (d) if you get (c) totally correct you will have the answer to this part which is name the only stallion to have won more than 2 such races.

    By the Way Tamerlo,Tom Marshall,Bill Marshall's son ran the White Horse Racing Syndicate I was a member of in the early 1990s and the best horse we had was a novice chaser called Muse !

    We existed for a couple of years with David Elsworth training our few horses until the cash flow ran out as there were not enough members !

    Being an owner in a small syndicate is a very expensive business though the positive side was that I never paid any entrance fees to any racetracks for over 10 years using my owners badge at every track I attended !

    Looks like I killed this thread with my little quiz. Well I've now added an index to the past riddles on the forum and hope we can get some of this added interest revived.
