Pendil
Pendil was a racehorse trained by Fred Winter. In 2012 Robin Oakley included it in his book Britain and Ireland's Top 100 Racehorses of All Time.
Pendil was a dual King George VI Chase winner at Kempton Park and was ridden on both occasions by Richard Pitman in 1972 and 1973.
One of Pendil's greatest performances was when carrying top weight of 12'7 to victory in the Massey-Ferguson Gold Cup Handicap Chase at Cheltenham in December 1973 gaining revenge on The Dikler, who had pipped him on the line nine months earlier in the Cheltenham Gold Cup.
