I've just been reading about a baseball player who's died after apparently ODing on cocaine, aged 29. Then clicked on here to read this and find myself more shocked than I was about a 29yo.
Very sad news, certainly one of the best jocks of my lifetime. RIP. |

Very sad news. Obviously one of the greatest jockeys of all time and seemed a thoroughly decent man.

Awful news and 63 is no age, Pat Eddery was one of the greats for sure.

Nice interview with Pat on ATR now from 2011.He told a good story.

That was a good interview kenny. Almost stopped hating Mat(t?) Chapman. He was a great jockey and a likeable bloke. Addiction had its claws in him and did for him in the end but he had a great 63 years and is in Racing history for as long as it lasts. Few of us had such brilliant years.
