Northern duo Jock Bennett and Kenny Williams celebrate a Lifetime in Racing

Catterick Racecourse provided the venue for an extra special Lifetime in Racing Award today, 24th July.  Best friends Jock Bennett, Assistant to Britain’s winning-most trainer Mark Johnston, and Kenny Williams, Travelling Head Lad for Michael Dods, received the honour from Racing Welfare jointly, such is the inseparable nature of their friendship.  Each received a trophy on the day and were on course at Catterick as part of the Go Racing in Yorkshire Summer Festival to collect their awards.  The 3.10 race was named after them as a mark of their combined service to the industry which totals an astounding 96 years combined.
