Who am I and who is my rider?
« on: November 09, 2010, 01:51:55 PM »
Can you work out from the clues below the name of the horses from the series and who was their owner/rider?

1. I was an appaloosa and my owner was (and still is!) very popular with the ladies. Alex and Steve
  
2. I was a feisty chestnut and my owner was very emotional. Copper and Dora  

3. I was very, very old and I had a special friend in my previous working life. Charlie and Bert Palmer

4. I was very naughty and caused a huge row when I frightened my rider! Barney and Angie Buckley

5. I had the same name as a plant and my rider wanted to win the Grand National on me. Periwinkle and Tim Shaw  

6. I was very, very small but my owner wasn’t! Lollipop and Fat man  

7. I was afraid of the big wide world and my owner upset her family by moving away. Ladybird and Cybil  

8. I needed to retire but my owner didn’t want to. Ranger and Ernie Perkins  

9. I was a great performer but my owner didn’t think so! Moonstone and Noreen  

10. With a name like mine I could have waved a wand and stop my owner getting sent to boarding school. Magic and Callie  

11. I was a good looking horse and two people claimed to own me. Cavalier - Seth Draper

12. I was good at standing still for my rider. Clipper and Ginny Tuckwood

13. My owner thought he knew how to look after me but he didn’t. Marty and Gip Willens

14. I was a very posh horse and so was my gambling owner. Jellico and Lady Martha Carn

15. I galloped very fast and my rider had a crush on the Mistress of Follyfoot. Brigader and Chip Lockwood

16. My owner took me out of retirement to pull a cart every Friday. Jonus and Mr Wimble

17. My seductive owner needed riding lessons. Taminy and Wendy

18. I’m a clever mare and knew why my owner was upset. Glory and Mr Mallet  

19. I pulled a heavy cart but my owner was a cheat and a swindler. Domino and Clem Barret

20. My rider made a fool of themselves jumping me over fences, and later on so did someone else from Follyfoot. Shadow and Isobel Mathews. Ron made a fool of himself too!

Loopy, correct with Lollipop. I don't think we knew his actual name but he is refered to with a rather un-pc name  ::)

And it is ladybird and Cybil  :)

I think Anne has already guessed number 10 Suzy.   :)

I think 9. is Moonstone (aka My Hero) and the circus lady was Noreen, but don't know the surname.
