    I agree, Himself. As I kind of pointed to in my original post. I know it’s nit-picking but surely Cheveley Park haven’t become that lazy that they’ve resulted in re-using names. Like Highclere they tend to have one word names so I’m sure there’s hundreds of words in the OED that haven’t been used yet.

    Even if it was Snow Ridge vs Snow Ridge(IRE) it would still be needlessly similar.

    Whoever is in charge of naming a large owner’s string of horses, give me the job – I’m sure I could go a few hundred years without repeating a name!

    Duly noted, eddie.

    I haven’t roped in a commentator yet so that would be interesting.
    Hopefully got a jockey coming up next. I’d also like to have a bloodstock agent too.

    Can I echo Mr. Wilson’s comments and say a warm welcome back.

    As well as great debate and competitions, we’re going great guns with our Q&A’s (located in the Racing Forum>Celebrity Q&A section of the site).

    Recent volunteers have included the very forthcoming Matt Chapman, Mike Cattermole, Phil Smith amongst others, so keep your eyes open for some more great interviews :)

    I’ll try my best for Gosden but I reckon he’d be as easy as Sir M Prescott. JG hasn’t even got a website.

    Steve Mellish could be a possibility. I’ll try my best. As I will do with the other 2.

    Cheers for the kind words everyone. Big thanks to Matt for providing such detailed answers too.

    If there’s anyone you would desperately like to see given the TRF treatment over the coming weeks and months please let me know and I’ll try and set it up.

    Had you included Desperate Derek Thompson,then there would have been No contest Barry! :lol:

    Seems like great minds think alike APK!

    I can’t compete.

    Whilst we’re here, Matt Chapman is our next victim. Question here please:

    I don’t think he would have answered even if he’d have been asked but he certainly answered all your other questions:

    Including Permatan would have been too obvious.

    But yep, it’s The Chap Man
