Whiz-kid apprentice Michael Walker equalled Lance O'Sullivan's season's record of 162 wins when he rode five winners at Hastings yesterday.
"Not bad. It looks like he'll break the record. He's got two and a bit months to ride one winner," said Walker's boss Allan Sharrock last night.
Walker made no mistake in equalling the record when he won the last race on the programme on Quality Tango by 4 1/2 lengths.
"It's amazing what Michael has achieved," said Sharrock, "freakish actually."
Walker's other winners were Dixie Rocker (R2), Tesoro (R4), Firestarter (R5) and Rondstat (R7).
