Even I'm not that sneaky! ;D CLUES TO REMAINING NAMES: NAME OF A RACE HORSE IN A 1940s PONY POINT OF VIEW STORY WRITTEN BY A MILITARY MAN - PART OF THE HORSE'S NAME IN IS IN THE TITLE A PALOMINO IN A BOOK ABOUT A PALOMINO STUD FARM A SWEET SOUNDING MALE NAME - APPEARS IN A MARY GERVAISE STORY SET IN WALES THIS NAME COULD BE aka APOLLO! PHONETICALLY SOUNDS LIKE LOOKING FOR SOMETHING - NAME OF A HORSE IN A TRILOGY BY A VERY WELL KNOWN BRITISH AUTHOR (HAFFY SHOULD KNOW THIS ONE!)
