Champion jockey William Buick’s irresistible form has earned a punter a cool £10,000 windfall.
The rider is 20 winners clear in the defence of his Flat title and in current form he is going to prove impossible to catch. Buick won on his last two rides at York on Saturday and carried his momentum forward to Yarmouth on Sunday.

His next winner, Renesmee, was less decisive but saw Buick at his brilliant best to prevail by a head on the 7-1 chance. The third leg, 9-2 shot Royal Symbol, enjoyed another good ride from the champion jockey, running out a one length winner.
