Feel free to copy and paste the following for Chris Lewis. I'm sure others will add to it.
He is from Hobart Tasmania (this is also where Princess Mary is from) and was the first driver to drive 400 winners in a season; finishing with 453 winners from 687 drives in the 1992/1993 season. He is a relative senior at 53 years of age. He is also a trainer and in the season 1997/98 he trained his highest career tally of 208 winners from 397 starters.
His biggest driving achievements are:
7 Tasmanian Pacing Cups
5 Tasmanian Derbies
8 Tasmanian Oaks
11 Hobart Cups
4 Tasmanian Trotting Cups
3 Interdominions (Australias premier race); 2 aboard star pacer of the 1990s Gedlee and the other driving Imthemightyquinn in 2011
His career tally of Australian wins stands at 2nd behind only the late great Don Bradman with 3467 winners. He is by far and away Tasmania's all time driving king and continues to churn out the winners season after season.
