Phil Collington wins feature race in Jersey on final day of their season

31-08-2015

Congratulations to Phil Collington in the Channel Isles at Les Landes, Jersey today when winning the Clarendon Trophy – the feature race of the afternoon – over a mile and a half, partnering AUSSIE LYRICS.

After a frustratingly slow start to the summer having broken his ankle riding out, this was a well deserved success for Phil, one of our most talented Flat amateur jockeys who enjoys considerable success Arab racing when not riding under Rules.
Jersey has provided winning rides for other amateurs too this summer, with Freddy Tett enjoying no less than 8 and Ross Birkett winning the inaugural AJA sponsored amateur race there in July.  In addition ex-amateur Alice Mills enjoyed her first win as a professional jockey there this summer.  Many congratulations to all!
