What was he doing a lowly Fakenham ?
How they mighty must have fallen ... Tom Cannon was a British flat racing jockey. He won 13 British classics as a jockey, becoming champion in 1872. As a trainer, he trained classic winners, as well as winners over jumps, including the 1888 Grand National. He was the father of four jockey sons, including the six-times champion, Morny Cannon, and the great-grandfather of eleven-times champion, Lester Piggott. |
