I can’t be the only one who had her own stable of imaginary racehorses as a child, and her own set of racing colours. The British Racing website – hurrah! – allows you to play at designing your own personal jockey silks and check if the shade and pattern combination is still available, just in case, you know, you win the lottery and go to Tattersalls. Turns out that gold isn’t allowed (dang) but this is the nearest I could get to my old strip.
You know, that was something I never did. I never had my own racing colours. I had (and still do) my imaginary sidesaddle habit. Off now to experiment with the colours though!
