    I wonder if he was at Epsom today? Going by the pictures on RTV, he would have had the place almost to himself.

    A green vested blob in the shape and size of several men was indeed spotted stretching itself across the downs at Epsom yesterday. One racegoer finding himself quite alone, turned to his shadow and asked – What on earth is that ?

    It’s an undulating myth the shadow replied.

    CORPUS EDEMIS

    THE OMEN

    The spirit of the legendary stallion Razeen left his body on 16th February 2011. The great son of Northern Dancer out of Secret Asset was 24 years old when the end came.

    Razeen passed away like a true hero and was in the covering yard with his “working” boots on. The end came peacefully and was painless all of which was evident in his face and eyes which were calm and resplendent even though he lay lifeless bar the pulsating pinstripes. What a way to go !

    Good guys always finish last – Gentlemen finish third !!!

    They buried his working boots and monacle in a separate heavily disinfected casket all arranged and paid for by the notorious Word Association gang who placed the word third, carved in Bromley oak, on his grave while one of the gang quietly whispered the word *rsehole.

    Nice choice, gamble. Quite sure Mr. Davies would approve it. He seems to know about leggy fillies.

    An interesting observation indeed Oh Ruby, and it can be said that those that seek out Pegasus, or study or dedicate unnatural or inordinate amounts of time to study the finer detail of the muscularly laden equus caballus, are indeed the types to succumb to an earthy nature. In Davies’s case this earthiness was usually excecised and expressed with a certain decorum, and it would be eyewash to call him predator – in fact he called them out. Well…then there were the weak moments..

    ‘ When dusk settled and an unnatural amount of steam was seen billowing out from under the stable door, with Neddy the occupant all tucked up safely in bed, and entering La La land – it begged the question among rumour mongering raking out stable staff, ealy the next morning

    Wasn’t “The Blob” Steve McQueen’s first film?

    Exactly 25 years before Britney made school popular again by releasing her hit me hit ‘
    Baby one more time ‘
    I was out in California filuming with Steve McQueen. I only had a tiny part so never appeared in the credits. I was dressed down as always in those heady days of got no confidence YOOF and standing next to a dapper Fred Astaire who was also in the filum and was nonchalantly sprouting a red carnation on his jacket that day, and it made me feel a bit like a street urchin which incidentally was my part.

    Whereas Davies could interestingly describe himself as a myriapod – I could never call myself an actor, more a two bit opportunist, as my acting career was brutally cut short lasting all of 90 minutes and and that would have been in the summer of 73 -July or August. The filum came out the next year. No one noticed my talent. I never caught sight of Steve McQueen – he wasn’t on set that day but he would have known. No I sloped off towards the beach area of LA, glancing at intervals behind me. There was a serial killer at large back then who had innocuously been dubbed the Banana man. He would creep up behind a walking pedestrian and unleash a hammer blow to the head – similar MO to our Yorkie Ripper, difference was Banana man also attacked men and always left a banana skin by the body as if the culprit had had the misfortune to slip on it. It gave him time initially. I don’t know if he was ever caught – this killer with a distorted mind – they presumably checked out all personnel working in vegetable stores.
