No, John - that was Prince Monolulu (His name was actually Pete McKay) and his first really good tip came in at 100 to 6. He was more of feature of Epsom than Ascot, being a much-loved Londoner.
He is supposed to have been murdered by Jeffrey Bernard.
The horse was called Spion Kop. Anyfink else I can do you for, Guv'nor?
Aha - cross-posted with Adrian (Hello, Adrian!).
