Dynaformer is remembered at Three Chimneys Farm in Kentucky 5/3/2012. He was a "mean horse" but had a "born again" experience and was less mean in his last days. He lived two weeks after his heart "attack," which was longer than the vets expected.

Eliza interviews Rockabilly Jewellery designer Bete Noire at Cheltenham races [01:37]
Beth like Eliza hails from the Forest of Dean. She designs in vogue rockabilly 'pin-up' style jewellery which sells to the burlesque, vintage and rockabilly crowd under the name Bete Noire. She and sister Rhiannon were having their first trip to the races and she has done some jewellery pieces with equine and racing slogans such as 'Dead Cert' , 'Fast Filly, and 'Hot to Trot'; still in keeping with the rock and roll/tattoo slogan theme. Beth and Rhiannon throughly enjoyed their day with Eliza and at the races. Beth only had one bet which finished last; but sister Rhiannon went close with a second.

Let's see how 16 year old Charlotte Pritchard ridden Nick Tamplin trained 'Wilkinson' does....in the finish with Rachel Leyshon on 'No Reason Why'.....the last fence was omitted after the first race due to slippy conditions... but that makes it a very long run in...
