News about Richard Patrick

Oisin Murphy, the three-time Champion Flat Jockey, has won Group One races in eight other nations. All the excitement and glamor will be far away on Thursday, when Murphy takes his first ride over hurdles at Wincanton. It has long been the 27-year-old's desire to try himself in the winter sport, so it makes sense that the horse he will be riding is called Let's Do This. Many will believe that no major changes will be needed, that all racing will be the same, but that could be further from the truth: Murphy, to make an analogy, is currently the cyclist in the Tour De France who is now bouncing through a forest on a mountain bike.
