Horse boots

In Hand.

Charming Jenny - From this pedigree chart it seems that Old Morocco Mare threw Spanker and was then bred back to her son giving birth to Spanker Mare.

I guess you can't get much more inbred than that. There are other examples on the database especially early on in the piece.

Kicked on

Long winded race names, today's winner must be the British Stallion Studs / Pyments Quantity Surveyors E.B.F. 'National Hunt' Novices' Hurdle (Qualifier).

Munter - 1998 German filly by Hernando.

(The name is not an offensive comment on the horse. Munter in German means 'blithely'.)

Neigh

Master Overseer who put up a wonderful gutsy performance to get back up and win the big handicap chase at Cheltenham yesterday.

Phosphorus - 1837 Derby winner.

The only chemical element to win the race. (Sodium ran 4th in 1966 and went on to win the Irish Derby.)

Quickened clear

Relkeel top class hurdler who won 3 Bula Hurdles in the late 90s.

Seymour Eric - winner of the last at Hereford today thus bringing to a close a 241 year history of horse racing at the course.

Togs, Just: horse riding equipment brand

Union Jack, a type of bet bookies like.

Viscount Nelson

Wernher, Sir Harold - owner of the incomparable and legendary Brown Jack.

(If I could go back in time and watch one race it would be Brown Jack's 6th successive victory in the Queen Alexandra Stakes at Royal Ascot in 1934.)

X-box recreation will have to suffice instead.

Youngest age of a King George Chase winner is 5.

Lady Zia Wernher - owned 1966 Derby winner Charlottetown.

Amigo numnahs

Black Type - term used by the bloodstock industry to denote a horse that has won or been placed in a Group or Listed race.

Clásico St. Leger (Chilean St.Leger)

Clasico El Derby first run in 1885.

Ela-Mana-Mou - good 2-y-o but slightly disappointing in his 3-y-o season after which he was sold for £½ million and transferred from Guy Harwood to Dick Hern.

Came into his own in 1980 at 4 winning 3 G1 races including the Eclipse & King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes making the buying price look like a proper bargain.
