The story of Verde Blenheim
Verde Blenheim is a late-1960s racehorse-range name: the Ferrari 400 blog lists "Verde Pino Blenheim 2.443.578" in the standard range carried over from the 365 GTC/4, the 330 GT Registry carries "Verde Pino Blenheim" and "Verde Blenheim" in its Italver chip sets and "Blenheim Green Poly" for 1968–71 as Ditzler 43998, and carpaints.co describes a historical green similar to Verde Pino. Blenheim, Wikipedia records, won the 1930 Derby and sired Mahmoud, the 1936 winner whose name is Grigio Mahmoud's; ROSSOautomobili instead suggests Blenheim Palace, Churchill's birthplace, and pictures a 365 GTC/4 photographed by René Staud.
