Lester Piggott to remain in hospital 'as a precautionary measure'

"He's in good shape considering he's been abusing his body since he was 16."

Lester Piggott is expected to remain in hospital in London for a "few more days" after being admitted over the weekend.

One of the sport's all-time great figures, Piggott, 83, was reported to be "in good shape" by his daughter Maureen Haggas, wife of Classic-winning trainer William Haggas.
