Ahhhh what a story!!! How I would’ve loved to have been there... did he not have any racehorses then Ghost or did they not interest him? I’ve owned 2 myself. One was in middleham and the other in marton, Andy crook’s yard and Declan Carroll’s yard across malton. Anyway long story short told him I’m a mad gambler and want to line a horse up what’s going to win me races...
Mrs Biggs she was called (great train robbers wife mrs bigs). So me seeing £££ I bought her she was a filly, lines her up for a race in thirsk 2016 it was. Lost a few races we went for the win, 10/1 she was me and my friend lumped her (£15k) on the nose to win. Watch the race back if you can on sportinglife, come from the back of the pack finishing like a train she was, beat half a length! That’s the name of the game unfortunately... Gambling’s expensive if you don’t hit it right.
Rest in paradise Gramps. He sounds a gentleman white ghost
