Steve Drowne landed his first Group One since 2007 when Robert Cowell's flying filly Jwala caused a 40-1 upset in the Coolmore Nunthorpe Stakes at York.
One of the more popular members of the weighing room, Drowne has endured more ups and downs in his career than many since Sakhee's Secret struck in the July Cup six years ago, and the closely knit racing community were delighted to see him back in the limelight.
The 41-year-old missed the majority of last season after being misdiagnosed when he fainted at home, and it was not until the intervention of his local MP that his return to the saddle was hastened.

A nice reward for all the jockey has gone through.
