Oisin Murphy is one of the most successful jockeys of his generation, a x5 Champion Jockey whose career has been defined by brilliance, pressure, relapse, recovery and an unrelenting pursuit of winning.In this episode of Performance People, Oisin speaks with rare honesty about the reality behind elite success. He reflects on the horse that changed everything for him, Roaring Lion, and explains why winning major titles has never brought the sense of fulfilment people assume it should. He opens up about the mental strain of race riding, his obsession with strike rate, the exhausting demands of making weight, and the psychological cost of constantly trying to stay at the top.Most strikingly, Oisin talks candidly about alcohol, blackout drinking, sobriety and the damage addiction caused in both his personal and professional life. He explains why his 2025 comeback title mattered so much, how he felt people had had enough of him, and why proving people wrong became part of the fuel behind that season.Oisin's book: Sacrifice: A Year in the Life of a Champion Jockey - available nowChapters: 00:00 Introduction00:58 Why 2018 Changed Everything01:23 Roaring Lion and the Horse That Made Him08:24 Why the Book Is Called Sacrifice10:51 The Reality of Riding 1,000 Horses a Year13:45 Why Being a Jockey Is So Unforgiving15:49 The Obsession With Strike Rate18:21 Alcohol, Blackouts and Hitting Rock Bottom23:52 How He's Approaching Sobriety Differently27:16 Why Sobriety Made Him a Better Rider30:03 Why He's Already Thinking About Retirement39:36 Why Winning the Champion Jockey Title Brings No Joy42:10 The 2025 Comeback Title and Proving People Wrong53:54 The One Race He Still Dreams of Winning________________________________The Performance People podcast, in partnership with J.P.

Wartime bomber pilot, champion jockey, racing journalist, bestselling novelist, Dick Francis truly was a legend. The Slightly Foxed team join Dick's son Felix and renowned racing commentator Derek Thompson (‘Tommo' to his fans) to talk about the modest man who left school at 15 but went on to write thrillers set in the world of racing that have sold more than 60 million copies in 35 languages.Dick grew up with horses and riding was in his blood, though he didn't become a professional jockey until he was 26, an age when many jockeys are retiring. But he quickly became one of the most successful National Hunt jockeys (and Champion Jockey in 1953–4), riding winners for top owners including the Queen and Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother. And it was the spectacular collapse of the Queen Mother's horse Devon Loch beneath him on the point of winning the Grand National in 1956 that finally persuaded Dick to retire from racing and begin a new career, first as a journalist and then as a writer of endlessly inventive crime fiction.So how did he do it? The novels, with their evocative titles – Dead Cert, Decider, Bolt, Hot Money – take you straight into the world of old-fashioned racing with its toffs and touts and inevitable shady characters. According to Felix, the writing of them was always a partnership, with Dick, a born storyteller, producing the plots and the atmosphere and his wife Mary as brilliant researcher and editor. Felix, too, helped with writing and research, and after Dick's death in 2010 he was persuaded by Dick's literary agent to keep the Francis ‘brand' alive. He is now the author of 19 bestselling ‘Dick Francis' novels, bringing the racing scene up to date with a female jockey as the heroine of his latest, Dark Horse.Along with Dick Francis's story of talent, courage and sheer determination – one he told himself in his autobiography The Sport of Queens – the team enjoyed added anecdotes and insights into the world of racing from ‘Tommo', and an ending that had us on the edge of our seats.

A moment which scared him and changed him. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Former champion jockey Richard Dunwoody joins me to talk about how photography has become a part of his life after racing, and there are questions about the sport that defined him, too. A three-time Champion Jockey in the UK, Richard won two Grand Nationals and a Cheltenham Gold Cup on the legendary Desert Orchid. He helped define jump racing in Britain and Ireland during one of its most competitive eras. But that was only chapter one. After stepping out of the weighing room, Richard set out on endurance rides across South America and took on challenges that carried him far beyond the racecourse. Now, he travels with a camera, chasing stories in places a long way from grandstands and bookmakers. In this conversation, we talk about photography, adventure, and the discipline that links both worlds, plus what happens when the noise of competition finally stops. Also in the show, Lee Cobbs writes about retracing his roots and finding new angles in a familiar town, Arran Carter-Cheetham shares stories from his photographic adventures that took him halfway round the world to the so-called "Venice of the East," and on that note, I have news about a photographic retreat to the real Venice! Christopher Kincaid reckons he might just live in the best place in the world, and Matties Wesche is filming tandem parachute jumps from 10,000 feet. Links to all guests and features will be on the show page, my sincere thanks to our Extra Milers, without whom we wouldn't be walking each week and Arthelper.ai, giving photographers smart tools to plan, promote, and manage your creative projects more easily.

This afternoon's Melbourne Cup is expected to be on the slower side due to forecast rain. Up to 40 millimetres is expected to fall at Flemington through the day. New Zealand and Australia Racing Hall of Famer Bret Thomson says Flemington is good at draining water, but expects racing to be slow. He told Mike Hosking it will be a very open race. Thomson says many of the horses are European, and they tend to handle the soft track well. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
