Todays World Champion jockey is Australian Based New Zealander James McDonald, known universally as JMac : a name I gave him, due to the fact his father Brett, also a good Jockey over fences, was someone I mentored and called BMac -

I used to have his autograph, somehow it got misplaced over the years. He was admitted to Centinella Hospital in Inglewood, CA, in the 70's and my Grandmother who worked there got me his autograph. He was a great jockey.

My father was a newsman and interviewed him once. he said that he was a kind and gentle human being. Very intense, but soft spoken. He was a fan of The Shoe
