Thanks for Mandarin – that sounds about right – i have a b/w photo and it does appear the silks look very similar to Arkle.
I selected the horses and made up the cards before considering the availablity of the info (the net has never failed me before..) The selection criteria was only jump horses and to have some degree of fame preferably from before the turn of the century. The 36 i decided upon were: Arkle
, Red Rum, Desert Orchid, Golden Miller, Dawn Run, Best Mate, Crisp, Bula, One Man, L’Escargot, Pendil, Mill House, Monksfield, Night Nurse, Aldaniti, Tied Cottage, Istabraq, Captain Christy, Sea Pigeon, Comedy of Errors, Hedgehunter, Silver Buck, Foinavon, See You Then, Lanzarote, Corbiere, Spanish Steps, The Dickler, Mandarin, Persian War, Jay Trump,
Cottage Rake, Moscow Flyer, Burrough Hill Lad, Suny Bay, Amberleigh House. I know that i have hurdlers and steeplechasers but that is not a consideration and that one or two might be a bit "out there" (Spanish Steps was a personal favourite when i was a young ‘un.) If anyone thinks i’ve missed a real champ plz let me know but keep in mind the criteria above.
Thanks again
Steve
