The man who sank to the lowest depths just one year ago is atop the horse racing world – and the Sandy Lane Gold Cup-wining horse – after piloting 12-1 long shot Dancin David to a historic win in the Caribbean’s biggest race.

Here, Samuel takes a peep backward after sweeping past John Brian with Anderson Trotman aboard.
