Takes me back to the early days of the first betting shops.....those young jockeys such as Pat Eddery, Willie Carson up against the oldies Lester Piggott, Ron Hutchinson, Joe Mercer.....days of 2/- EW on the 2.15 at Windsor!
Great jockey - not the most stylish, but very strong and effective. Sadly never seemed to settle into his life after riding. RIP Pat - many great memories.
