Warriors on Horseback

eAudiobook
John Carter / John Cormack
Jockeys who earn a living race riding on racehorses are a remarkable group. They are fiercely competitive on the racecourse but enjoy a tribal kinship in the weighing room. This book celebrates these warriors on horseback both old and new.The book takes a tour of Aintree's weighing room tracks a day in the life of a Derby-winning jockey and investigates the twin challenges faced by jockeys: inevitable injuries and 24/7 weight management. The book also looks back at historical events where jockeys have made the headlines including Bob Champion who recovered from cancer to win the Grand National and Frankie Dettori's magnificent seven wins in one day at Ascot.
