Luke Morris joins elite group of Flat jockeys by riding 2,000th winner at Southwell

Britain’s busiest jockey Luke Morris has reached another major milestone after riding the 2,000th winner of his career.

Morris, who won the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe in October on Alipinista, hit the mark on the Archie Watston-trained Colors Of Freedom on Tuesday night at Southwell, the track where he also rode his first winner in 2005.

The 34-year-old is one of only seven active riders in Britain to ride as many winners and joins Ryan Moore, Frankie Dettori, Jamie Spencer, Jim Crowley, Paul Hanagan and Joe Fanning.
