Dave Dick (jockey)

David Victor Dick (8 March 1924 – 15 February 2001) was a British jockey who competed at the Grand National from 1951–1965, winning the race in 1956 on E.S.B. He was the only jockey ever to win both races of the Lincoln-Grand National Spring Double and he holds the record, nine times, for the number of clear rounds on a notoriously difficult Aintree course. (The Aintree Clear Rounds Award, given for any jockey completing more than five clear rounds, was not instituted until 1986.)
Dick was born in Ashampstead, Berkshire, the son of racehorse trainer David Purves Dick and Alice Isabel Ivall. He died in Reading, aged 76.
