Sorry, I've been getting my days/dates wrong the past few days. The table below brings us up to date, I think, but, as ever, give me a shout if I've missed anything. Well done all winners, and a tip of the hat to Jakebuckfast for that 14/1 winner yesterday.
All the best.

This made me smile from Chris Cook's article in the Guardian:
"“Whenever I rode a big winner, the postbag would be full,” Piggott later reported of this most productive period. After Sir Ivor, even his dentist was moved to send a telegram: “HEARTIEST CONGRATULATIONS STOP THANK HEAVEN YOUR RIDING IS OF A HIGHER QUALITY THAN YOUR TEETH”."
Jersey Wonder 3.49F
The greatest,thanks for the memories.RIP.
Saddened to hear the passing of Lester Piggott. Willie Carson speaking wonderfully about him at the moment. I only caught the later stages of his career, but thanks for the memories, Long Fellow.
