Jump jockey Lorcan Wyer retired from race-riding yesterday. The Irishman, who rode his first winner in Britain on Omerta for Homer Scott in the National Hunt Chase at the Cheltenham Festival in 1986, has ridden regularly for firstly Peter Easterby and, following his retirement, for his son Tim since then.
"I'll be starting work in the non-too distant future for the Irish Turf Club," Wyer said.
