that's very special. You just want them back in one piece but it's nice to be able to give her a winner as she does a lot at home and is a good worker. She has just got her degree in business studies. We didn't expect to win - I knew I'd given her a nice ride around but it's one thing expecting and another thing doing it!. She rides plenty of work at home with Colin and all the jockeys and she's a good rider, and a good event rider, but she hasn't the experience on the race track. Going out there is a different story but she did everything perfectly and she kept her head. Unfortunately for the horse he's just earned himself another race next weekend but we'll give him a good holiday after that. If he gives her a good spin in that Ladies Derby we'll be over the moon and that's a bonus tonight. He's a nice horse for those events and will give her a good spin. I don't have many horses for her as I don't have any bumper horses but she can ride and hopefully after a couple of rides like that, it'll enlighten a few lads and she might get some outside rides. She's already a better jockey than her father and her uncle (Shane Lyons, the trainer’s assistant)! G M Lyons, trainer
