Answer a question, ask another – Googlers will be sent to hell in a handcart!

[Seasider]

May I interject.

Which champion miler died in 1987 having sired the winners of more European Pattern races than any other stallion.

[Ex RubyLight]

Seasider, what is your definition of Champion miler? The first Cartier Awards took place in 1991….

[Seasider]

That’s a fair question.

The colt was the highest rated horse of 1969 (miler or otherwise) with a Timeform rating of 134.

[Ex RubyLight]

Thanks, that’s a good answer…

The Frankel question:
Doncaster conditions race was Rainbow Springs
Royal Lodge was Klammer
2nd Sussex Stakes & Juddmonte was Farrh

[The Tatling Cheekily]

I had checked after getting 9/14 earlier, and I MAY have remembered Farrh but I doubt it. And I wouldn’t have remembered Klammer or Rainbow Springs in a hundred years.

I’m taking a wild guess at your question, Seasider.
Was it Habitat, by any chance?

[Gladiateur]

@LD73- all correct.

I would hand over to you but it appears we have two threads for the price of one.

[Seasider]

Habitat is the correct answer, Jimsun.

(Sorry for the interjection. I’ll pay more attention next time.)

“Answer a question, ask another” seems quite self-explanatory to me, to be fair.

My apologies for the interjection, but even though I’ve fallen out of love with the game and only restarted checking in this place very recently I simply couldn’t resist having a stab at Seasider’s question.

Anyway, I don’t have any questions to post so do carry on regardless, @LD73. Cheers!

Ok, being that we are starting York today here is a topical one:

Name the horse that had an unbeaten record at York in winning the Moorestyle Convival Maiden, Musidora & today’s race the Juddmonte (or International as it was known at that time)? Bonus kudos points if you can name the two jockeys that rode her in said races?

[Gladiateur]

In The Groove was the horse. Cauthen definitely rode her but I can’t remember the other jockey off the top of my head.

[Gladiateur]

Ray Cochrane maybe?

[LD73]

You got the main part correct and Cauthen was the main jockey to ride her – a clue to the second jockey is that he was later credited with saving the life of the master of the flying dismount.

Edit: Sorry didn’t see your follow up post but correct again

[Gladiateur]

Name the two horses in the famous Piggott v Shoemaker match at Ascot in 1982.

[IanDavies]

That’s a cracking question.

I can’t remember and am not even 100% sure who won, though I have this vague recollection of Shoemaker making all and winning by around half a length?
