Elephant Rides

[Graham Banks]

(At the risk of coming across as Graham's spokesperson ) Jumbo, afaik, is sometimes a descriptive adjective or even a nickname associated with elephants.

To be honest, when I saw the name of the tournament I immediately expected to see Hannibal among the participants, but it's probably more than a little too strong for this rating level.

Correct again regarding Jumbo.

Duhhh - how did I missed that?
