Blakeney was a grand Derby winner and as a four year old finished second to the great Nijinsky giving him weight for age in the King George at Ascot , super horse . Trained by Arthur Budgett , who also won the Derby with Morston , ridden by Eddie Hide , both places in Norfolk .
Ernie Johnson,hell of a good jockey.Hope you read this Ernie,all the best to you. Great memories.
I was there that day I remember I backed the winner of the last race.
Won by a horse named after a Norfolk seaside village

Ribofilio was doped before the Guineas and was never the same again , his trainer , Fulke Johnson Houghton rated him far superior to both Ribocco and Ribero , both classic winners , he would have won this race doing handsprings if the " Knobblers" hadn't got to him
