Some might recall this story breaking, a young lad "Jamie Parks" was told he was too small to be a left back. Instead of casting him aside, it was suggested that he moved into horse racing as a jockey. He did so, he's moved down to doncaster aiming to follow up on a new idol Hayley Turner.

This is a interview I just heard - This was broken by East Midlands news a little back but young lad is set to turn pro after his studies. :)

I thought the excuse of him being small was silly, he's either good enough or not surely?
