Persian Punch would have to be up there. Followed it during its whole flat career and it was incredibly consistent always trying to win from the front.

Red Alligator, third in the ‘ Foinavon’ National in 1967 and then won, with my money on it, probably a shilling, the next year

Lochsong it was. Ian Baldwin turned him from a carthorse to a serial winner.

Yes. Tough chaser.
One of the favourites for the fucked up start in Grand National when the race was declared void.

Said live on air. " Even a backward country like Ireland can start a race correctly. "

That was pretty much his career over.
I think he sent Zetas Lad over to Ireland for the Irish Grand National to repair his reputation but the horse came nowhere.

Best sports book I have read (a few times now) ... some of the stories in there are incredible... loved the one about the jockey dying at the track.. getting carted off to hospital..m miraculously coming back to life and getting a cab back to the track for the last race .... films not bad either
