Rossa Ryan partnered Bluestocking to victory in Europe's richest race
Rossa Ryan became the first Irish jockey since the great Mick Kinane to win the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe on Sunday as he partnered Bluestocking to victory in Europe's richest race.
He rode his 500th winner in March 2023 just under six years after his very first winner on St. Patrick's Day 2017. He was just three months shy of his 17th birthday when he took his maiden win and incredibly recorded over 200 winners last season. The Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe success came over two years after the jockey ended his association with owners Amo Racing by mutual consent.
"Thankfully we've had fantastic success throughout our partnership. Personally, I wish him and Amo Racing the best of luck in future – no doubt they will continue to be hugely successful. “She has fulfilled what I possibly thought she could do and all credit to the two men sitting next to me. I’m just the lucky one to be on her, but there are a lot more people who have done a lot more work than me with her.”
