Epsom Derby

But before you go out and mortgage your house on our dead-cert winner, we should point out that the horse in question is made of fibre-glass.

Getting ready for The Derby

Pupils at Levenshulme High School have about three weeks to decorate the horse before it's taken to Epson to be displayed alongside seven other horses from around the country.

And that's not all, one of the horses will be picked as the winner and win tickets to The Derby for the designers.

"It's quite bizarre, it's lovely, it looks to nice to cover it."

"We were very taken with the idea of chopping up CDs and using cassette tape for a mane - it would be quite apt really a s sort of media horse."

Hear Amanda Pugh, Deputy Head of Levenshulme High, talking about the horse.
