This is a celebration of a great Australian, with racing royalty, friends and family sharing their stories and memories of Roy Higgins, the gentle trailblazer who touched their lives.

'Roy has been an inspiration, an icon and a legend. His legacy will live on forever.' Damien Oliver
'Roy wasn't just a great jockey and a fine ambassador for racing - that's only half the story.  He was a great human being, and that might be the bigger story . . . because it's harder to be a great human being.'  Les Carlyon
