Francis Buckle
Francis "Frank" Buckle (1766–1832), known to the British horse racing public as "The Governor" was an English jockey, who has been described as "the jockey non-pareil" of the opening quarter of the 19th century, and the man who "brought respectability to race-riding". He won at least 27 British Classic Races during his career, a record which would not be beaten for over 150 years.
==Early life==
Buckle was born to a saddler in Newmarket. His parents died when he was 12, and he was brought up by an aunt. He started racing at the stables of Richard Vernon, making his first appearance in May 1783 at the age of 16. He rode a bay colt called Wolf, and met the scales weighing only 3 st 13 lbs (25 kg). His mentor was Sam Chifney, from who he learnt his customary riding style - holding his horse up for a late run.
