    Another trailblazer decides to call it a day...

    The key with her was that she didnt look like a female riding against men in a ruthless sport..

    Her dedication to the sport riding so many point to points made her style and power. What a jockey.

    Got out in one piece and with her faculties intact. Well done on a fantastic career, propelling female jockeys to national headlines <applause>

    Top, top jockey who seemed as gracious off the course as she did on it... I'm sure she will figure somewhere within the racing world, too good a person not to be...
