Most prolific racers

In just 27 weeks so far this year, some people have managed to rack up an extraordinary number of performances so far:
68 races - Hannah Oldroyd (Handicap 3.4)
66 races - Steve Darby (Handicap 2.5)
66 races - Barrington Mudd (Handicap 19.9)
All 3 mixing a wide range of distances.

The median number of races for people who have competed so far in 2014 is a more achievable 3 however.

How do you compare?
