RAY Hogan, the former jockey who rode winners for J.P. McManus and Eric McNamara, and is now a fireman in Limerick, told his story on this page back in April and now he’s back.

Married to Rose with four children Aaron, Calum, Alex and Ellie, he missed race riding so much he decided to apply for his licence again as an amateur at the age of 41. And he’s done it!
