What an absolute tragedy.

The jockey had quickly become a standing dish at the Scottish and northern tracks in recent seasons.
It is no coincidence that Lucina Russell's strike rate improved dramatically with CG riding her horses.

These NH jockeys are probably the toughest types of sportsmen that one would ever come across, and some have broken almost every bone in their body whilst doing their job.

Condolences to his family. The sport has lost a good bloke.

RIP
