    What was the name of that one that was with Nicky Henderson a few years back? Big, strapping 2m chaser, could only go right-handed………..might have raced in Lady Lloyd-Webbers colours…………decent handicapper…………wasn’t the cleverst of jumpers though………………might have had a K in the name??

    Nice one DJ – Get Real it was. Not a "K" in sight.

    Not sure it was Lady Lloyd-Webber’s now or not, but can see why that might have thrown rory.

    If you are rubbishing others’ suggestions, forgive me for pointing out that Greenhope’s biggest career win came in the Grand Annual at the LEFT-HANDED Cheltenham.

    Don’t think it was owned by the Webbers. The last registered colours of the horse were Mauve and pink (quartered), halved sleeves, hooped cap registered in the name of Pioneer Heat-Treatment.

    I was just trying to be amusing. You see, what I did was take a horse of the Lloyd Webbers and put a "k" in the middle. It’s a form of genius.

    Definitely a two miler? Definitely a K in there? Definitely Nicky H? Definitely not Peaty Sandy?

    Aye, that rings a bell.

    Still, mauve and pink quarters are at least in the ball-park so far as Lady Lloyd-Webber’s are concerned, who colours are well-known to be "Mauve and pink diamonds, pink sleeves, mauve star on cap, butt-ugly husband".

    Not really where I was headed with this, marb.

    I genuinely couldn’t remember Get Real’s name – it wasn’t me setting some sort of test.

    "horse in the all blue of Godolphin, formerly trained by Mick Channon, third to a horse who ran the quickest derby time this millenium, if you can’t get it in thirty seconds this games not for you". :)

    Tobougg.
    Saw him win his debut at York.
    Nice horse on fringe of top class.

    At stud now. Here’s his link;
