Top lady jock outside America.

Brother rode/ father trained Bobbyjo to win National in 1999.

and for the really old her father rode L'Escargot to win in 1975 (beating Red Rum) Probably the best horse to win this race in the last fifty years.

More trivia from harry.

Ive just got a feeling that the bookies will do 'a bookies' with this one. Im expecting £110 as it was 10-1 when it won. I put '£10 win'

I will walk in to collect and......... 'It was 8-1 that' K'OFF..
