My wife used to work with a niece of The Cat. That Chelsea team was full of great players and characters - and they beat Leeds in the 1970 Cup...
Anyone who believes in coincidences might want to have a punt on a trainer winning the Autumn Double. The last trainer to achieve this was Sam...
Great stuff Tamerlo. There are some wonderful stories from that era. I read that the suffragettes also burnt down a grandstand - think it might...
A really nice man. I was lucky enough to meet Ginger McCain in the mid-80's. I was at Kempton with my dad, who worked in racing. He seemed to...
If you read about the great trainers they are all very strong-willed and make the key decisions themselves - and invariably get things right. They...
Some great clips there DBF. Zilzal was some horse and would have been outstanding in almost any generation. For me the BC episode sums up why I...
I've just watched last year's race again and - as I thought at the time - the Japanese horse was an unlucky loser. I know there is often trouble...

The best hold-up jockeys are those who only use those tactics when it is right to do so. The comparison with Carberry is a good one. Both are...

Another great piece Tamerlo. I was just entering my teens when Marshall was in his golden period and he seemed to be having winners every day....
Record speaks for itself. Not as pretty to watch as Walsh or some others but very effective.
Great stuff Tamerlo. Coincidentally I was reading about John Scott this evening in an old racing encyclopaedia I picked up at a recent car boot...
I have just the one account - if you ignore the one belonging to my dead grandma in the attic. Is that somebody taking a shower? Actually I'm...
I tend to side with Bustino's view of Hills rather than Shergar's. To stay near the top for 40 years takes some doing and unlike many who make it...
Thanks Ron - I thought as it was odd as the bloke has not quite retired yet!
