North Lincolnshire's amateur jockey, Simon Latchford, finished a very creditable third on Bright Sparky in the John Smith's People's Race at Aintree - part of yesterday's Grand National meeting.
Simon, from Ulceby, was originally a 25-1 to one rank outsider, meaning my money went on him to win, rather than be placed.
I've heard a couple of snippets suggesting people Brigg connected punters won some sizeable cash on yesterday's Grand National, in which Mon Mome triumphed at 100-1, the biggest-priced winner since Foinavon in 1967.
