Lester Piggott signed 12x8 colour photo. Lester Keith Piggott (5 November 1935 - 29 May 2022) was an English professional jockey and trainer. With 4, 493 career wins, including a record nine Epsom Derby victories, he is widely regarded as one of the greatest flat racing jockeys of all time and the originator of a much imitated style. Popularly called The Long Fellow, he was known for his competitive personality, keeping himself 30 lb (14 kg) under his natural weight and, on occasion, not sparing the whip, such as in the 1972 Derby. Piggott was convicted of tax fraud in 1987 and sentenced to three years in prison. He served just over one year. Good condition. All autographs come with a Certificate of Authenticity. We combine postage on multiple winning lots and can ship worldwide. UK postage from £4.99, EU from £6.99, Rest of World from £9.99
