Brian Hughes makes course history as Richmond Lake sails home

Brian Hughes became the first jockey to ride 100 winners at Wetherby. He got Richmond Lake home in the 1m7f chase. Hughes was presented with an inscribed ice bucket and a bottle of champagne. The first of his 100 course winners came on December 3, 2005.  Donald McCain said it's not a coincidence that Hughes rides so many winners.

Nathan Moscrop rode his 100th winner of his career on Piaff Bubbles for Rebecca Menzies. Sean Bowen moved to within eight of a first seasonal century with a treble on Fiston De Becon, Mackelduff and Chosen Hero.
