The luck didn’t change much for me in the States following up on the three seconds and a non-runner on Friday night with three seconds a third and a non-runner on Saturday – Close but no cigar as they say!!!!! Even allowing for the Girdy coffers being somewhat depleted it was a great meeting yet again and stays firmly amongst my favourites of the flat season.
Back home congratulations to Paul Hanagan on his first British Flat Champions Jockey Title. Having started the final day of the season at Doncaster with 191 winners on the board, two clear of his rival Richard Hughes, the pair failed to get among the winners on Town Moor and Hanagan lifted the trophy. It has been a thrilling battle over the last eight months and credit to both men who have conducted themselves admirably throughout the season and showed true sportsmanship, a lesson many other sports would do well to learn from.
