I remember My Swanee trained by Bill Marshall very speedy horse just like his stable companion Raffingora who i just rated the better sprinter.

Both these horses were able to give 2 stone to most of there rivals and give them a beating.

The likes of The Brianstan Decoy Boy Tribal Chief Trillium couldnt live with those 2 . and they were no mugs.

Hard to believe My Swanee one of the fastest horses to race over 5 fur even won over hurdles and was 2nd to King Cutler in a race at Cheltenham which is now called the Sun Alliance Hurdle

I think he had another useful sprinter called Grey Mirage ?

Bill named his 3 sons Tom Dick Harry lol

hello Hayes

I remember Raffingora - and breaking track record at Epsom over 5f. Went to Japan I think in the end.
My Swanee yes incredible ran over hurdles and won a few races - clearly sound as races alot and over many season.

ordered my tickets for Champions Day

not at York this year - used to go alot in the 1990's as was lucky enough in those years to be in the Juddmonte box on Tues which was then the 1st day .. took the kids and had a few days up there after racing on Tues... Pentire/Singspiel Great Voltigeur great races, next year was Dushyantor , Bonny Scot a few years earlier who should and could have done more as horse -
