Stratford’s finale of amateur jump season this Friday

27-05-2015

With only 3 days of the NH season left for amateur jockeys and Friday night’s traditional finale hosted by Stratford Racecourse eagerly anticipated, both of our champions are in unassailable positions with their pole positions safe.

Many congratulations to Harry Bannister on retaining his title for a second year and many congratulations to Bridget Andrews on winning her first ladies title (following in the footsteps of her elder sister Gina) before turning conditional just a few weeks ago.  Bridget is already making a great success of her professional career and we wish her all the luck for the future.

The reserve champion for the men is another conditional already, Ciaran Gethings, who rode his biggest winner of his career at Haydock recently with his first professional ride.  The lady’s reserve champion is not so safely secured with Brodie Hampson currently holding that position but the champion’s sister Gina is breathing down her neck with only one less winner and looks forward to some interesting rides on Friday night.
