About 28 years for me. Ned took me under his wing as it was my 1st job in racing. I will be forever grateful to him as he didnt need to do that

State....was it Alex Stewart trained Mtoto???? Who was the trainer who got shot and tragically killed by a disgruntled stable lad???

I remember whilst working for William Jarvis that he was having a 'relationship' with one of the stable lasses which we all thought was a secret and only a handful of us in the stables knew about but we woke up one Sunday and it was front page of 'The News of the World'........not a secret anymore. Wonder if Willie went round all the newsagents in Newmarket trying to buy up every copy
