Remittance Man - Nutcase #2.
Quote:
“Remittance Man, the champion two-mile chaser in 1992, could be inconsolable unless his favourite sheep, Nobby, was beside him. When they pulled another sheep out of the pen by mistake and placed it beside Remittance Man, the horse killed it on the spot.”

Willie Wumpkins - a grand old horse who won the Coral Golden Hurdle Final (now the Pertemps Final) at the Cheltenham Festival 3 times on the trot from 1979 - 1981.
He was 13 when winning the race for the third time.

I was there and backed him 1982 I think. Won by a distance
Arc De Triomphe
Dragon Blood - won a race in Italy in 1967 with Lester Piggott in the saddle at 1/10,000.
This, I believe, is the shortest priced winner in the history of the sport under rules.

I agree.
The Five hundred to one available about second-placed Terimon for the 1989 Derby would have been rewarding, though.

Forgive n'Forget. Gold Cup winner and subject of a huge betting coup when he won the 1983 Coral Golden Hurdle Final.
