I`ve not heard of Higgins. I know Shoemaker by reputation, and he was obviously a very great talent. BUT. Piggott had everything, totally ruthless, superb riding skills. All about winning, worry about the stewards afterwards. But not just forceful, he had finesse. The Minstrel would never have won the Epsom Derby with any other jockey on its back, Piggott "kidded" it to win. So, my answer is Lester Piggott.
