Paul Mulrennan has been named the winner of the Cock O' The North competition with 90 winners. He will be awarded the Cock O' The North cap on Saturday at Doncaster. It is his first victory in the contest, which is a Northern racing tradition. The Cock O' The North cap is given to the jockey with the most victories at the 16 Northern-based Flat racecourses each year. Ben Curtis was second on 75 winners and four-time Cock O' The North winner Danny Tudhope was third with 72 winners.
Mulrennan said, “I've been based in Yorkshire for 20 years and to win this prestigious award, it's always something I've wanted to do. I've seen some great jockeys win it over the years and I had a thought recently that if I retired and hadn't won it, it would be something that had slipped through the net.
“I am delighted to have won and I owe a huge thanks to all the owners, trainers and stable staff for putting me up and keeping the horses fit and well and to my agent Richard Hale, as well.”
