Paddock? Really?? I would call a paddock an 'enclosed area', but an enclosure? A bit rough. But good quiz anyway.

I didn't get the cocktail ones, and "cheddar" was just a guess. I've never heard that term being used for money.

You don't really say giddyup to make a horse go faster. You make a clicking noise and/or squeeze your thighs. Stupid western movies...

I always thought it was said to supposedly get the horse moving, not to go faster. "Get ye up."

Some horses respond to giddyup, or to a shake of the reins, but that's just my experience.

They're smart animals, they could respond to a variety of stimuli with training I am sure.

Same here. I cannot find a definition of muddle that mentions "mash" or "mashing." Perhaps "mix" would be more appropriate.

Yeah it's not common slang. Though there was a character who used it in a line from the highest-grossing movie of all time. I think he was talking about money. He may have meant that the Pandorans were burying large amounts of cheese under their giant tree.

Allow 'pedlar'? It seems to be now less common than 'peddler' (and mostly British) but still correct.
