Episode #2: Tasting the Sky
What happens if—or when—someone doesn’t make it the finish line? From restrictive diets, precarious rides, 4:00am starts and wasting away in the sweltering heat of a local sauna, a jockey’s lifestyle is no picnic. Robbie tells all in a revealing episode about how being a jockey took it out of him, and why retiring in his twenties was his only option. Hear from the likes of retired jockey Ivan Culliver, Paul Innes of the National Jockeys’ Trust, Emma Goring and more.
