Wow!! Got there eventually. Was really really hoping it was going to be Dhakar as when I met him on a riding holiday at Val Woodhalls, I thought he was a superb stamp of Arab but Val had found him impossible to back. I do believe though that he was eventually ridden.
Right bear with, got to think of a question. |

| Interesting to hear, just to fill n the time, Blue shah was tricky too and was never reliable in the ring, usually good all together but reluctant in his individual show, tricky in the box too, but he came to the owner I knew late in life, who knows what had happened to him in earlier life?! |

Isn't it amazing Vera how we can drag these useless bits of information out of the backs of our minds, when we haven't thought about them for years and years and years................ That must have been sitting in my brain for 35+ years without being used before
OK back to steeplechasing.
What price did Red Rum make when he was first sold at auction? |
