Following seven winners in the last two days, jockey's championship trail-blazer Seb Sanders has attracted a flood of money to claim the title for the first time in his long career.

Sanders booted home a 31/1 four-timer at Lingfield on Thursday and with his principal retaining yard of Sir Mark Prescott hitting top form Sanders has been all the rage with Betfair backers.

With Sanders' main rival Jamie Spencer now trailing by 17 winners, it's no surprise that the 35-year-old is in upbeat mood.
He told reporters: "My agent, Keith Bradley, is doing a great job and I keep saying that I'm on a fantastic run at the moment and I'm enjoying it while it lasts."

Sanders, matched at a high of 23 early on in trading, is now available to back at just 1.52 with Spencer on the slide out to 3, having been backed at as low as 1.4.
Defending champion Ryan Moore, only recently returned to the saddle after injury and is available at 29 and it's 55 bar.
