Sporting Trivia Challenge Trophy

F S Trueman?

[SimonM]

Oh you want them continuous? A shame Alistair Brown only played 1-dayers...

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

George Hearne

[Dulwich_ Park_ Fairy]

Nope... G.F Hearn

[Mick Mac]

This is a very tricky one DPF - you might have to call time soon and put us out of our collective miseries...

[SimonM]

Well so far I have Alan Brown of Notts & Roy Swetman of Surrey....B)

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

I was bored last night (it's my only defence)

Alan Brown

Roy Swetman

John K Lever

[Dulwich_ Park_ Fairy]

John K Lever is correct, don't know what Brown's and Swetman's middle names were but JKL is the only one where all three are in order.

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

The other two didn't have middle names.

Who rode Stroller?

[Dulwich_ Park_ Fairy]

The other two didn't have middle names.

Ahhh, the question must require 3 initials then.

[SimonM]

Stroller was Princess One's I think?

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

No.

[????]

Stroller was George Graham's nickname and he was manager at 'wall for a while....am I getting closer?

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Don't be silly Quids.

It probably helps if you were a pony-mad gel in the sixties and seventies.

[????]

I'll PM Dulwichmum then

[Narnia]

Marion Mould

[matthew123]

Lester Pigott?

[Keef]

Dick Francis?

No idea when this happened, but he was a jockey wasn't he?

Bob Champion? :-S Actually that was National Velvet wasn't it.

[Jah Lush]

Harvey Smith?

[SteveT]

I dont know the answer but they all flew with KLM

[matthew123]

Just checked on wiki to see if Lester Piggot was right or wrong - and found Declan is correct... and btw Stroller died of a heart attack when he was 36..

[Keef]

Just looked this up, as I knew I'd never get it, and I'd never heard of the person!

[Keef]

Good spot Matthew, Declan's answer was correct, but used her maiden name.

So it's Declans turn.

Note: her other name is Coakes

[Narnia]

This should be quite easy I think. A football team in the 60's had 5 players whose first initial of their surnames spelt BLACK. Name the players please.

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Well done, Declan - you get the red rosette. [sorry I've been away for a while]
