My memory is not and never has been a it should be, (unless we are talking about useless trivia facts), but I had a massive flashback last night when Wifey mentioned Fontwell Park.

- I was actually there when John Francome broke the record for most national hunt winners, ridden. Fontwell Park Racecourse - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
