    • Amateur National Hunt jockey Sam Lee has died at the age of 27. Lee was a prominent figure on the point-to-point circuit and rode four winners under Rules during his career. A joint-statement from the Injured Jockeys Fund and Point-To-Point Authority read, “The point-to-point world is devastated to hear of the sudden death of Sam Lee on Friday, March 6. Our deepest sympathies go out to Sam's family and his many friends. “Sam, 27, was a hugely popular figure on the point-to-point scene and his tragic death is a huge shock for everyone. This weekend's point-to-point race meetings will be holding a minute's silence ahead of racing in memory of Sam.” Lee's biggest victory under rules came aboard the Phil Middleton-trained Golan Fortune when he landed the Listed Spinal Injuries Association Big Buck's Handicap Hurdle at Cheltenham in November 2019. He then rode the same horse in the Coral Cup at the Cheltenham Festival four months later. British Horseracing Authority chief executive Brant Dunshea said, “We are all shocked and upset to hear about the death of amateur jockey Sam Lee. “Amateur jockeys are an integral part of our sport, its community and its rich history. Every jockey, professional or amateur, will be mourning today the death of a colleague and friend, as will everyone across British racing. “The sport has in place services to provide care and support to those close to Sam. That support is available to everyone in our sport and anyone affected by this issue is encouraged to call them. “Our thoughts are with his friends and family.” The post Amateur National Hunt Jockey Sam Lee Dies at 27 appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

    • That's Gold according to the rider failed to stay the distance.  How many times does that happen, showing a brilliance over 2000m (Avondale Guineas) but then not seeing out the 2400m.  Yulong made the wrong call there, or maybe not.  On recent experiences (Willydoit and Leica Lucy) brilliant over 2400m, but only ever raced up to 1600m in Aus
    • Did notice that on her return, wonder they showed it, good to hear all's well, well written that is.
