Marco Ghiani: Chasing a REAL Group 1 Chance and Gym Battles With His Wife | Jockeys: The Podcast

Racing TV

Show Notes

Former champion apprentice Marco Ghiani joins Adam McNamara on Jockeys: The Podcast.

He looks back on leaving Sardinia for England in the middle of winter in 2015, learning “racing English”, and the one jockey he still can’t understand.

Marco explains why this is his best season yet and talks about his next target of 500 winners in England. He also wants to ride a real contender in the big Group races rather than the 100/1 shots.

Plus, who lifts more in the gym, Marco or his personal trainer wife? And Adam reminds him of the day they fell out at Bath.
