"I've broken my collarbone seven times... my neck... two thighs... vertebrae in my back... my wrist... ankle... and the tibia a couple of times."

On the eve of the Grand National the ex-champion jockey, who has never won the great race and who tomorrow has his last chance to win before he retires, talks about himself and his sport against the backcloth of his own exciting action.

"A wonderful insight into the life and very hard times of those muddy, brave little gentlemen who carry so much of the national wealth on their backs" (Daily Mirror)
