#BettingPeople: Edward Chanin was an aspiring young jockey who dreamed of being the next AP McCoy. He had a job with Philip Hobbs and had not long ridden his first winner under rules when on the 19th of December 2001 his suffered a near fatal schooling accident. He was airlifted to hospital but his parents were told that he ‘had no chance’. Edward defied the Drs, not just once, but on several occasions.
After six months in hospital his wheelchair was hoisted onto some bales of hay and he was heaved onto a horse again, this before he could walk, something the Drs said he’d never do. Edward suffered a broken back which left him paralysed down his right side, he had to learn to walk, talk and write again.
This is his inspirational story.
