David Egan takes aim at 2000 Guineas after winning £65k per second in world’s richest race

On a soggy day at Nottingham in 2019, David Egan's lucky number seven came up trumps. His name – Mishriff – now a globetrotting superstar who helped the 21-year-old win his own lottery prize.

After they paired up in the mud on the Midlands circuit, Egan soon became first jockey to the colt's owner Prince Faisal. By February, the jackpot was his, when he earned £65,000 per second winning the £14 million Saudi Cup – the world's richest race.

He banked just under £750,000 and then added another sizable sum from the Dubai Sheema Classic. Back on home turf, Egan bids to pocket his first Classic cheque in the Qipco 2000 Guineas aboard Legion Of Honour.
