The sad news that retired jockey John Lowe has died brings back many happy memories here at #Doncaster 
As well as being a top rider across the Northern circuit, John was one of its greatest characters

He was particularly associated with 1990s course regular Mellottie

💬 “It’s part of the fabric of society for this part of the world” Racegoers and businesses at @DoncasterRaces explain why racing is such an important part of people’s lives in the north, the businesses and communities it supports, how it puts towns on the map, and the pleasure that a simple flutter on the horses brings to millions. #BackBritishRacing @YorkshireRacing

Well what an awesome day at @DoncasterRaces that was! We came to see turf history and we saw it, except that it wasn't the turf history we were expecting. A fantastic Leger that everyone was happy about, regardless of who they backed. A great feel good vibe from start to finish. – at Armthorpe, England
