It has great resonance for men in their forties and has no negative connotations with me. Tell Tom to sod off. But Marine Boy is a nothing name, though, and I have to side with him on that one. Have a look at this article on Amur Leopard, a Russian cat that lives in the frozen forest of the arctic circle - one cool cat indeed. It might give you inspiration. http://www.loveearth.com/uk/readingroom/essays/amurleopardbbcw Killer Queen is a perfectly good name and do not let him put you off.

Brilliant!!! On a separate note, I hear (hopefully correctly) that Skid Solo is being targeted at the same maiden Winker took last year, en route to Ascot glory. Would you say he is the most precocious of your 2yo's? “Jordan and Peter Andre were on the table next to me - I felt humble in the presence of the two of them”.

With regard the One Cool Cat colt and your association with comic book heroes there is always TC. Betfair were sponsoring Lambourn Open Day and sure you will be pleased to know that despite being cold it was a really good day out.

Bumped into Andrew which was good. Max 123 looked in tip top shape as well. Are you backing anything in the lincoln tomorrow? Send me an email, i think i've got the winner of the irish national on monday if all goes well. spk soon Ned Hi Bert,

Maybe not Professor Fumble though :-) Regards ChrisK Marine Boy is hardly a nothing name, as for people of a certain age it means a cartoon series from their childhood.
