LONG ODDS

Hopefully Brigg bookies will have taken plenty of bets for the horse being ridden by Ulceby trainee solicitor Simon Latchford in this afternoon's John Smith's People's Race at Aintree.
Riding before a 70,000 crowd at the Grand National meeting will be a huge thrill for Simon and the nine other amateur jockeys who won through a national competition to gain places in a special charity race, with £100,000 going to the winner's chosen worthy cause.
Simon and his colleagues are in flat race action and won't have to take on some of those fearsome jumps.
