Silvestre de Sousa lit up a damp, grey final meeting at York today with a 1,983-1 four-timer on Oceanway, Bannock, Orsippus and Licence To Till.

The Brazilian is in the middle of a three-way battle to be crowned champion jockey but he feels he cannot catch Paul Hanagan and Kieren Fallon - especially as he has a riding ban to serve - but he nevertheless took his tally to 137 for the year.
