    By combining a racing word(s) with other word(s), let’s create a comical racing glossary. I’ll start the ball rolling…

    Gosdenman – In racing mythology, a centaur-like creature with the upper body of a top trainer and the lower body of a champion National Hunt horse.

    Vladbrokes – A shady, Russian betting/gambling company.

    Bottoxeter – A race meeting that encourages/promotes the use of bottox for racegoers.

    Hendoscopy – A procedure used at Seven Barrows to look inside horses openings.

    Malice Plunkettle – In racing folklore, a mad woman presenter who hosts a tea party for her guests but poisons the brew.

    Let’s see if I got the hand of this thread.

    My suggestion is

    Grand Theft Auto National.

    A race round Aintree in a stolen car.

    You've got to accentuate the positive.
    Eliminate the negative.
    Latch on to the affirmative.
    Don't mess with mister in between.

    Johnstoned – your doubtful stayer who needed to be nursed to get the trip led until 2f out then back-pedalled rapidly.

    Simcocked – your stout stayer got dropped out in last place despite the lack of pace and stayed on once it was too late to finish just outside the frame.
