Frost becomes 1st female jockey to win King George VI Chase

Bryony Frost became the first female jockey to win the King George VI Chase when she rode 20-1 shot Frodon in an impressive front-running display on Saturday, giving trainer Paul Nicholls a record-extending 12th victory in the prestigious English horse race. Frodon – one of Nicholls’ four runners – dictated the pace of the 3-mile (4.8-kilometer) jumps race at Kempton after going out in front early and jumped excellently throughout under the 25-year-old Frost. Clan Des Obeaux, another horse trained by Nicholls, was going for a third straight victory in the race.
