Youmzain. Top class 12f colt now at the same stud as his sire, Sinndar, in France for a very reasonable fee of €3,000, his first crop of 2yos will hit the tracks in 2014.

It's A Yes From Me - horse 50% owned by Simon Cowell and 50% by Ant & Dec bought earlier this year. Cowell wanted to call the horse Simon.

I think the animal is a 2-y-o and hasn't seen a racecourse yet.

Kalaglow, high class 4yo who won the 1982 Eclipse and King George. His name was derived by combining that of his sire Kalamoun and his dam Aglow but it was later discovered his pedigree had been incorrectly registered and he was actually out of a mare named Rossiter.

Ouagadougou - capital of Burkina Faso and a colt by Prized foaled 2000 with career earnings of $289,598.

(In case the subject should ever crop up in conversation Ouagadougou has the highest percentage of vowels in its name (72.7%) of any of the world's capital cities.)

Nightmare for a race commentator, it's had 55 starts. ^

Petoski who recorded the fastest time for The King George in 1985.

Qualifiers - eligibility for the Pertemps Final is surprisingly lax.

All you need is a horse aged 5 or over that started in a Pertemps Qualifier in the current season (irrespective of where it finished) or was eliminated from a qualifier by means of weight, or was entered to run in a qualifier that was subsequently abandoned, or was intended to run in a qualifier but the trainer forgot to enter it. (I made that last one up.)

Sea The Stars - 2009 Derby winner leading a 1-2-3 for Irish trainers, the only year since 1970 that no British trained horse has been placed in the race.
