On Friday 30th March, we had the pleasure of hosting the presentations for the the British All Weather Jockeys Championship. The championship, which is decided on ridden winners of flat races taking place on the all-weather between 09/11/11 to 30/03/12 was won by Joe Fanning, who clinched the title at Lingfield with a double win. Joe clinched the title after winning 89 times from 438 rides. Luke Morris (86 wins from 648 rides) narrowly missed out after only managing 8th place on Mister Green in the 4.30 at Lingfield.
