Doing the milk round before going to school, riding bareback across the fields to his classroom, making do with second-hand clothes and tack… that was John’s Yorkshire childhood. From a humble beginning to riding the kick-back favourite Ryan’s Son, and the grey Pegasus that was Milton, his career has spanned 60 years and included successes on Gammon, Grannusch, Hopscotch, Welham, Peppermill, Argento, Lactic Two, Cassini’s Chapman, Sharid, Unick du Francport and many more.
From a first prize of a few pounds, when winning meant there was enough money to buy the diesel to get home again, to winning 93 brand new cars and riding the world’s first equine millionaire, this is John’s story. The ups and the downs, the glory and the disappointment. His desire to win, his training methods, his dry sense of humour, his friendships and his incredible ability to get the best out of every horse he rides. It’s all here.
It’s an incredible story that you won’t be able to put down.
