OGMORE’S Jack Tudor has landed one of the top jobs in horse racing by being named as stable jockey to leading National Hunt trainer David Pipe – son of the legendary Martin Pipe.
Tudor, 20, who learned his riding skills in pony and point-to-point races in the Vale of Glamorgan, takes over the role from the likes of AP McCoy, Richard Dunwoody and Peter Scudamore.
Tudor was full of praise for Ogmore-By-Sea trainer Christian Williams, who gave him his early chances and he was just 17 when he won the 2019 Welsh Grand National on Williams’s Potters Corner.
TIM’S 129 – 1 DOUBLE
HAVE horses will travel is certainly the motto of Cowbridge trainer Tim Vaughan. He recently had a 129-1 double when on the same day he scored with 9-1 chance Kalpaga at Hereford and 12-1 shot Silver Disguise at Wetherby. The former, ridden by Alan Johns, won the mares’ handicap hurdle and the latter, partnered by Charlie Price, won the handicap chase.
50 FOR ISABEL
Llancarfan’s Isabel Williams recently chalked up her 50th winner when winning on her father Evan’s
Pageant Material at Ffos Las. The six-year-old is owned by her grandparents Mary and Billy Evans.
