Auld enemy winner:
Our old enemy winner was June Deans — from Scotland who knew that it was CWS (Glasgow) that won the National title at the Royal Albert Hall playing 'English Heritage' and that it was Howard Snell who was inspired to write 'Gallery' used at the 2017 Nationals after a number of pictures he saw displayed in art galleries.
It was Tam 'O'Shanter who had thrilling ride for home on a horse called Meg in a test-piece by composer Denis Wright, whilst the link between Scotland's joint leading goal scorer, the famous English maker of golden brass band mouthpieces and a children's comic strip character who had a dog called Gnasher, was the name Denis — as in Law, Wick and 'The Menace'.
Finally, it is cornet star Jim Hayes who leads a secret spy life as Jonny Midnight.
