Henderson’s horse Cumrew ridden by Jamie Railton (the favourite) made the running until it fell 3 from home leaving Crowecopper and myself in front which wasn’t an ideal situation for my horse (as he would think he’d already won)… however, at this point we had to make the best of our way home. Crowecopper jumped the next well but on the run to the last a couple of the others (both big odds) came past us and we finished 3rd, beating Kim Bailey’s runner a short head into 4th place.

… not many jockey’s ride the winner of this race – only one a year!
After winning this race he ran several times very quickly on hard ground, eventually breaking down very badly at Bangor-on-Dee and when he came back to racing the following year he was a horrible ride, he would run right handed at every jump and would literally take other runners with him in the process… he hung badly to the right

The horse wore blinkers and I found he didn’t like the sand kicking up in his face, I don’t blame him I didn’t like it much either. As a result we got behind… the horse running as if he was outpaced until he got going a bit in the second half of the race and stayed on into a well beaten 3rd.
Prince Celtic never ran on the all weather again. He was placed several times (over hurdles, all-weather hurdles and fences)… we had a couple of 2nds, four 3rds and 4th in a novice chase at Uttoxeter on Midlands Grand National Day… but the horse never won a race and to this day I don’t know why he wore blinkers.

When we won this race Ardent Spy he was 13 years old and it had been 6 years since his previous victory and to put it bluntly, if the horse hadn’t had training problems when he was younger then I would have never got to ride him, he’d of been running at Cheltenham, Ascot and Sandown rather than Uttoxeter, Southwell and Ludlow… the horse’s problems turned into a bit of luck for me!
We won the Freddy Dixon Memorial Chase at Uttoxeter and I think winning a race run in the memory of a jockey who was killed riding in a race is an honour

A Journey Through the Racing Career of Charter Party
The 1985/86 National Hunt Season
During the 1985/86 national hunt season, I had the privilege of looking after Charter Party, a horse whose journey in racing was filled with both triumphs and challenges. Throughout this season, Charter Party showed exceptional talent, particularly when he clinched victories in prestigious races like the Ritz Club Handicap Chase and the Golden Miller Chase.
Charter Party after winning the Ritz Club Handicap Chase at the 1986 Cheltenham Festival
The 1986/87 National Hunt Season
Leading Up to the Cheltenham Gold Cup
As the 1987 Cheltenham Gold Cup approached, I experienced the excitement and stress that came with preparing Charter Party. Unfortunately, the horse was not without his issues. Following his win in the Golden Miller, he underwent several procedures; his legs were blistered, and he was hobdayed. Consequently, he remained in his stable throughout the summer of 1986, missing out on the crucial rest period needed after a demanding season.
Struggles and Comebacks
Through late Summer 1986 Charter Party began his comeback journey which was challenging, stretching over 10 weeks of walking roadwork, often alone, to prepare for the Gold Cup.
As the season progressed, and after several below par runs and also not eating well, an incident occurred.
Charter Party received an injection in the rump. It was given by the Head Lad and I held the horse while he was injected. I asked the Head Lad ” What’s that you gave him?” and he replied “Vitamins”.
As it turned out, the injection resulted in complications, possibly from from a dirty needle. By the time the 1987 Gold Cup arrived, it was already very clear that Charter Party was not the same horse we had seen in the previous seasons.
While I was no longer his lad by 1988 (I’d left The Duke’s for race rides elsewhere), I was present to witness him achieve an incredible victory at Cheltenham in the 1988 Gold Cup, marking a triumphant yet bittersweet chapter in his legacy.
Caring for Silver Wisp: My Journey from June 1993 to March 1995
The Early Days at Jackdaws Castle
I had the privilege of looking after Silver Wisp from June 1993 to March 1995. During this time, I worked with this talented horse. On Silver Wisp’s first morning at David Nicholson’s Jackdaws Castle racing stables, I got the chance to ride Silver Wisp in his first schooling session over various log jumps in the jumping paddock. It was a crucial first step in his training journey for the anticipated new career as a National Hunt horse.
Training and Development
Over the course of his training, I also introduced Silver Wisp to hurdles both on the all-weather surface and grass. His ability to navigate these obstacles was promising, and it was disappointing that because of injury, Silver Wisp never had the chance to run over hurdles in National Hunt racing during my time looking after the horse at Jackdaws Castle.
Achievements and Memories
One of the highlights of Silver Wisp’s career was winning the 1994 Group 2 Jockey Club Stakes at Newmarket. It was a proud moment not only for his owners but for everyone involved in his training. I fondly remember the excitement surrounding that victory; you could see the joy it brought to everyone at the stables.
The photo captured after the race, with the Duke walking in behind, perfectly encapsulates the energy of that day.
Memorable Moments with Viking Flagship
My Journey with Viking Flagship
From August 1994 to March 1995, I had the privilege of looking after Viking Flagship, a horse known for his tenacity and talent. During this time, I led him him up in six very exciting races, with Viking Flagship achieving victory in three significant events. These wins included the Tingle Creek Chase Grade 1 at Sandown Park Racecourse, the Castleford Chase Grade 2 at Wetherby Racecourse, and the prestigious Queen Mother Champion Chase Grade 1 at Cheltenham Racecourse.
Achievements on the Racecourse
Viking Flagship’s strong performances in these races illuminated his competitive spirit. Each win brought a blend of joy and pride, reflecting on hard work and dedication. The thrill of witnessing his success on the track was unparalleled, making our time together deeply rewarding.
A Day to Remember at Jackdaws Castle
One memory that stands out among the rest is the day I had the chance to school Viking Flagship over hurdles at Jackdaws Castle, thanks to David “The Duke” Nicholson. It was a unique experience and this day remains etched in my mind as a significant moment during my career in horse racing.

Remembering Hill Beagle: A Unique Racing Journey
Introduction to Hill Beagle
Hill Beagle was a funny little horse, whose distinctive personality set him apart from others at the stables. Although his ride at home could be quite challenging, especially with his tendency to hang to the left, he was ultimately a talented racehorse. His unique gait aside, he showcased impressive skills over hurdles and fences, becoming a cherished partner of mine for many rides.
Success on the Track
During our time together, Hill Beagle and I celebrated a series of victories, particularly at Southwell. With four wins in handicap hurdles, he proved his capability on all-weather surfaces. Despite his smaller stature, likely under 16 hands, Hill Beagle’s strong build allowed him to excel in competitions. These wins were not just milestones; they represented teamwork and the joy of racing.
A Fond Farewell
Regrettably, not every moment in racing is filled with triumph. Hill Beagle’s progress took a sombre turn when he suffered a breakdown during a novice chase at Hereford while running a promising second. It was a critical moment, and potentially, he should have clinched victory. This race marked the final time I rode him on the course, a bittersweet reminder of our journey together. Hill Beagle may not have been the easiest ride, but his spirit and courage will always be remembered.
