Try telling that to Juddmonte=s wonderful old stager Famous Name, who achieved a remarkable 19th stakes victory in the G3 Solonaway S. two days ago. His career figures now stand at 37-20-8-5, which means that this tough-as-teak 7-year-old has been out of the first three on only four occasions, even though 36 of his starts have been against stakes company. And it isn=t just on the racecourse that he has been busy, as his trainer Dermot Weld pointed out in yesterday=s TDN: AHe takes plenty of training and we have to work him hard to keep him fit, but his enthusiasm for being a racehorse is remarkable.@ The son of Dansili has now won one Group 2, 12 Group 3s and six listed races and I remain convinced that he would also have won the G1 Prix du Jockey-Club in 2008 but for being drawn 17 in a 20-horse field, which forced him to race wide.
