I teach ICT but I can’t work out how to insert an image of this horse. Perhaps someone will help me with that & then there will be a picture clue.
Thought this would have gone by now. Oler than those too Ginger
So older than 1911.
Are we talking a foreign Group 1 mile Crepello?Value Is EverythingPost World War 2
British bred & stood in Britain
Won a race which is currently Group 1 but not a classic
Owned when racing by Lord Derby, but I’m pretty sure he didn’t breed him, he isn’t from a Stanley House family any way.
Not a stayer on the flat
Chestnut in colour
Think he might have been an outsider when he won the group 1 race, but I can’t find the starting prices.Enough clues?
Tudor Treasure won the 1961 St James’s Palace Stakes, when trained by Jack Watts. However he became just a handicapper in the latter part of his three year old career and Lord Derby sent him hurdling.
IF the answer is Tudor Treasure it is interesting to note that he ended up (well 1979-1981 at least) standing at Penally Court Stud in Tenby, Dyfed.
I don’t know if he was much of a success although I have spotted some point to point winners by him.
Well done Adrian, I was thinking no one would get this….or I had imagined Tudor Treasure. He was at Barleythorpe Stud in the 1960s.
Quite an interesting horse, won a couple of prestigious races & ended up hurdling. Rather a nice looking horse from photographs. He didn’t sire anything of note as far as I can see. He must have died/gelded/become infertile in the early 1970s, his last foals seem to be 1971.
Anyone know anymore about him?Your go Adrian…….
Tudor Treasure wasn’t an outsider when he won the St James’s Palace in ’61. He was 11/4 favourite (in a poor renewal) on the back of his 8th place in the 2,000 Guineas.
He won 2 hurdle races and was 3rd in the Triumph Hurdle (then run at Hurst Park).
He moved from Barleythorpe to Blakeley Stud in Shropshire in the early 1970s. I think one of his best offspring was Beneficient, who won twice on the flat and 4 hurdle races, but I think he was a bit of a dud.
Question to follow..
Who comes next in this sequence:
G Bardwell
L Dettori
J Fortune
D Holland
D Harrison

Woah up there Shack you have to get the answer right first. You’re on the right lines but don’t believe everything you read on Wikipedia!

I was pulling as hard as Un De Sceaux
Amended apologies !!

In that case, must it be David Harrison, as he won it twice in a row?
Nope you need to find out who actually was Champion Apprentice in 1993. It wasn’t David Harrison (only 1992) or Stephen Davies (1994)..
Well known jockey and personality..
Yes Shack – it was Jason…
Funny how Wiki has that one wrong on list of Champion Apprentices – why I asked the question – although correct on Jason’s own Wiki page.
Your question now stands…

I didnt refer to Wiki – two seperate t’internet sources listed Harrison as champ. Maybe Harrisons total listed of 40odd didnt include AW winners ridden in the turf season as opposed to The Sharks 60 ?
Nice one anyway.
