Hughes cuts Hanagan's lead to three Richard Hughes cut Paul Hanagan's lead to three at Lingfield as the jockeys' championship race entered its gripping final week. Hughes had two winners to the title leader's one at the Surrey track, with the score now 184-181 in Hanagan's favour to ensure the titanic battle goes all the way. The pair's competitive rivalry was never better illustrated than in a head-bobbing finish which saw Hughes triumph by a short head Aurora Sky (15-2) at the expense of Hanagan on Bahamian Music in the Bet Premier League Football - Betdaq Fillies' Handicap. The narrow success on Jon Akehurst's charge completed a near 46-1 double for Hughes following his win on Whiplash Willie (9-2) in the attheraces.com/breederscup Median Auction Maiden Stakes.
