@@andrewfinch2281 I'd say it was 7, and they never threatened the front 2. That was the point I was trying to make, it was between the two of them from a fair way out. Ramsden's entitled to not get the exact distance right, he had just taken Ladbrokes for over a million.

yes best interview i have seen great story...lee

What a brilliant horse Pebbles was but she hardly ever gets a mention when people talk about great racehorses of the past she’s definitely in my top 5 of all time 👍

[@steveo7165]

Two top Fillies, Katies probably eclipsed Pebbles as a 3yo.

[@davidmcmahon5234]

Brilliant jockey Philip Robinson was for a long time when he rode for mick jarvis money was down and always collected great combination 😊

[@lesblakeman]

The legendary 4:00am gallop on Newmarket Heath convinced Robinson to ride Katies , she gave one of Mick Ryans best handicappers 2 stone and beating

What a Beast of a filly . Great Ride by Robinson .

A fine example of how overrated Peter O'sullevan was. Dreadful commentary

[@EricPollarrd]

Any sports commentary was crap back then

[@slipnslide9308]

Australian race callers have been good for many years.

[@josephmaher4270]

Peter was regarded as a great commentator,not sure where you are coming from

[@grahammonro6500]

I have to respectfully disagree here. I think he's the best. So much better than the tosh commentators around these days. There was nothing like Sir Peter describing Ardross, or Dancing Brave, Rainbow Quest, Zilzal, Nashwan, Oh so sharp or whoever coming to challenge at the 2 Furlong pole. His commentary made the hairs on my neck stand up. Just didn't get that with Graeme goode, Jim magrath, Simon holt or Richard hoiles et al.
