Callum Shepherd on battling back from injuries and keeping a solicitor on standby | Jockeys: The Podcast | Racing TV
Royal Ascot-winning jockey Callum Shepherd joins Adam McNamara to discuss staying sharp when injured, a lack of downtime and keeping a solicitor on standby!
One of the more vocal members of the weighing room on recent industry topics - including the trial of Sunday evening racing - Shepherd answers whether jockeys need to stand their ground more as industry participants and also discusses social media (any sponsors out there?!), as well as his riding style and the importance of not coming up with a 'manufactured' style in the saddle.
He also has forthright views on how busy jockeys are during the season and that it's difficult to even have a conversation with close weighing room colleagues at the races. While he wouldn't change his career and doesn't expect the current fixture list to change, Shepherd makes for sincere and honest listening as he offers the inside perspective.
