I say it ran recently but I believe it last ran about a year ago.
At least one of its wins can be seen on YouTube.

Re: A horse called Blyton
I hadn't realised that Enid and her books inspired the names of so many racehorses!

Re: A horse called Blyton
If I owned a horse, I'd call it Smugglers Top - not sure if I'd use an apostrophe, though... (We are in Mullion at the moment, and the house next door is called Smugglers Cottage)

Re: A horse called Blyton
Great names (both horse and house!)
I wouldn't mind a horse called Ring O' Bells - it has quite a nice ring to it!
Incidentally, the first edition of that book has The Ring o' Bells Mystery on the cover but my Armada paperback has The Ring O' Bells Mystery, with "Ring O' Bells" being written that way throughout the paperback.
