I love those little facts and stories about the racing ladies. Thanks. Keep them coming.

Still to ladies eager to be identified. Come on, gentlemen!
N° 4 is not that famous, I agree, but she may be found among her peers rather easily.
N° 15 is very famous, but I admit that this picture of her was taken at a very tender age...

faksta · « **Reply #39 on:** July 23, 2009, 12:20:28 PM »

Lady #15 should be Lilian Bryner then.

Ray B. · « **Reply #40 on:** July 23, 2009, 12:22:59 PM »

Sorry but no.
Although famous and a champion, she competes in a peculiar category.

faksta · « **Reply #41 on:** July 23, 2009, 12:31:50 PM »

Louise Aitken-Walker?

faksta · « **Reply #42 on:** July 23, 2009, 12:33:52 PM »

Also can lady 4 be Fay Taylour maybe?

Ray B. · « **Reply #43 on:** July 23, 2009, 04:51:20 PM »

#4 and #15 are none of those.

João · « **Reply #44 on:** July 28, 2009, 01:34:16 PM »

Number 4 can be Rita Rampinelli

Ray B. · « **Reply #45 on:** July 28, 2009, 04:25:42 PM »

Not any Rita.

D-type · « **Reply #46 on:** July 28, 2009, 05:33:19 PM »

#4 Christabel Carlisle

Ray B. · « **Reply #47 on:** July 28, 2009, 06:00:00 PM »

Nor a Christabel.

Allemano · « **Reply #48 on:** July 29, 2009, 02:51:55 PM »

Could be lady 4 Amy Johnson?

Ray B. · « **Reply #49 on:** July 29, 2009, 06:06:09 PM »
