Ryan Moore paid tribute to his support network after being inducted into the British Racing Hall of Fame. The three-time champion jockey, who has ridden an astonishing 230 Group/Grade One winners, will be honored at Ascot on October 17. The Aga Khan's Shergar will also be inducted on the same day.
Moore acknowledged the crucial role of his family, particularly his father Gary, and early mentor Richard Hannon. He expressed particular gratitude to Sir Michael Stoute and Aidan O'Brien for the opportunities they provided throughout his career. Moore becomes the 14th jockey inducted into the Hall of Fame, joining legends such as Lester Piggott and Frankie Dettori.
Shergar, the 1981 Epsom Derby winner kidnapped in 1983, becomes the 14th horse inducted, joining Frankel and Enable. Sophie Able, co-chair of the Hall of Fame panel, stated both inductees are truly deserving, with Moore establishing himself as one of the great jockeys of his generation. The ceremony will take place on Qatar Racing British Champions Day, marking a significant achievement in Moore's highly decorated career.
