    In Part Two of our conversation, former 1960s and 70s National Hunt jockey Ian Watkinson reflects on his return to Newmarket and his successful spell riding for Tom Jones, as well as one of the standout moments of his career, victory in the Hennessy Gold Cup in 1976. Ian speaks candidly about the fall in March 1979 that brought his time in the saddle to an abrupt end, and how he approached the next stage of his life in racing, going on to train and remain involved in the sport. An honest and reflective look at glory and heartbreak, with personal memories from a very different era of jump racing and a few memorable tales from the weighing room along the way.
