Philip Blacker (b. 1949 ) was a jockey until his retirement in 1982.

Since then, he has been a sculptor of sporting arts.

He is the son of General Sir Cecil Blacker.

1969

Blacker became a professional jockey at the start of the 1969/1970 season and remained so for 13 years, during which time he rode 340 winners.

He is a Member of the Jockey Club, and has sat on various committees including the British Horseracing Authorities Security and Investigations Committee.

Blacker is considered as "one of the most important names" in 20th century sporting art by Stella A. Walker.

1982

Blacker said that 1982 was "my one big chance to win the race".

However, Blacker had taken a ride at Ludlow the day before the Grand National where he fell and broke his arm.

In his absence, Royal Mail was ridden by another jockey and the horse fell at Becher's Brook fence.

"That horse needed a rider that knew him and on that day he didn't", commented Blacker afterwards, describing the event as "one of the biggest regrets of my life".
