No muck for @rachaelblackmor as she swops jumps in Tipperary tonight for the Irish Derby at the Curragh tomorrow. Not many jockeys can do that.

Because they're worth it

Ahead of @LeopardstownRC Ladies Evening on May 26, we spoke to talented amateur jockey Kate Harrington: http://bit.ly/2rx6Ks3


Rachael Blackmore said her Cheltenham Festival had been “phenomenal” after becoming the first woman to be the leading jockey at the meeting.
The Irish rider had six wins, more than the entire British training contingent.
Blackmore, 31, was the first female jockey to win the Champion Hurdle, with Honeysuckle, and was second on A Plus Tard in the Gold Cup, which was won by Minella Indo.
“I can’t even comprehend being leading jockey – it’s crazy stuff,” she said.
“It’s phenomenal. It’s been brilliant. Henry de Bromhead is an incredible trainer. I’m just part of that team and getting on those horses.”
