Foaled in 1818, Jack Spigot by Ardrossan or Marimilon out of the sister to Bowbon, won the St. Leger in 1821 for the Hon. Thomas Orde-Powlett, his owner. This was the first of a record nine St. Legers won by William Scott, although Jack Spigot is said to have had a great dislike for the jockey. In 1822 he won the Convivial Stakes at Newcastle, and in 1823 he was unplaced in the Craven Stakes at Newmarket which was his last race. He was buried in the centre of Yew Tree Court, Bolton Hall, in June 1843.
