Simply answer this question: Which famous racing novellist had a great admiration for Cartmel when he wrote: "I think we all looked forward to Cartmel for the Whitsun meeting.

We used to stay by one of the lakes, Grasmere, Windermere or Coniston Water and motor over."

Was it: A/ The Scout, B/ Dick Francis, C/ Julian Wilson
