Ride Along With Richard Hughes in the British Champions Long Distance Cup Paulick Report
Ascot Racecourse hosted the QIPCO British Champions Day of racing this past Saturday, which had five group races on the program.
Richard Hughes, the 2012 champion jockey in England, was equipped with a helmet camera for his ride in the QIPCO British Champions Long Distance Cup (Eng-III). Hughes rode the 5-year-old horse Aiken for trainer John Gosden in the two-mile contest.
The Long Distance Cup was won by Royal Diamond, ridden by Johnny Murtagh (red, white, and blue silks). Unfortunately for Hughes and Gosden, Aiken, while in contention early, faded and finished last.
