    42d is Authorized - the horse Detorri was sanctioned on in Ascot.

    Have you 87a & 8d?

    Just wondering how many people went for Andy Black or Andy Bloch for 56 down, both are professional poker players and both surnames fit the answer grid. :confused:

    Probably more likely to be Andy Black as he was born in Belfast but now lives in Dublin.

    Sent mine off before Xmas so mightn't remember but post the clues and any letters you have and I will see.

    If you search this thread you might find them already answered.

    the results were posted in the sports section of the IT on a saturday two weeks ago (i think it was the jan 12 edition).

    forget who won but wasn't me anyway.

    i'm sure they'd have been in touch had you been a winner but :(
