    Quote: from stevedvg on 12:50 pm on Jan. 27, 2007[br]Lough Neagh.  Know it doesn’t rhyme. Lock Nar (as in Armagh) has been suggested. Can anyone confirm ?

    The "l" is pronounced "n" and the "n" "ch".

    So, the horse’s name is pronounced "nob cheez"

    Remis Velisque – Latin for ‘with oars and sails’. How is Velisque pronounced with ref to last syllable.

    It’s not Latin, it’s Khazakh.

    Pronunciation is "kok suker"

    ("u" as in hut)

    Hope this helps and look forward to watching this afternoon’s ch4 racing.
