  • Josh Apiafi
    Sep 19 2022

    For this episode, we traveled to 'The valley of the racehorse', known as Lambourn. It's situated in southern England and is home to over 1500 racehorses and our podcast guest Josh Apiafi.

    Josh is well known in the horse racing industry. He has over 30 extensive years of experience and has held a variety of roles. He is currently a presenter at Sky Sports Racing and has recently launched a new initiative; Racing Pathways.

    His drive for diversity and inclusion within the industry is fierce. His enthusiasm to encourage the younger generation to experience a wider range of career opportunities within the industry is infectious. I loved discussing a full range of topics with Josh and we hope you enjoy listening to one of our industry's great minds.

  • S2 E3: Rachel King
    Jun 17 2022

    This week we sit down with Group 1 winning jockey Rachel King.

    Rachel started her career in the saddle as an amateur riding point to points in the UK and Ireland. She knew quickly that she wanted more and took out her apprenticeship on the flat. However, it wasn't the right time or place so she paused her riding career while heading to Australia for a working holiday.

    Fast forward a few years and she is now the first female to ride a Sydney Cup, a Group 1 winning jockey with supporters such as Gai Waterhouse, Godolphin, and Mark Newnham. If Rachel's story gives you anything, it's the will to never to give up.

  • No Barriers: Jemma Cutting
    Jun 1 2022

    This week I am joined by Inglis Marketing Executive Jemma Cutting.  Jemma has always loved horses but since watching the movie Pharlap at the age of 12,  Jemma became fascinated with horse racing.  The stories, the race colours, and the sporting greats hugely inspired Jemma to pursue a career within the thoroughbred industry. Jemma didn't come from a racing family and all her knowledge was researched through books, race replays and life experience the field. I hope you loved Jemma's as much as I did.
