Rossa Ryan secured a major milestone when riding the 1,000th winner of his career on Lopeo at Goodwood.<\/p>\n
Riding for David Menuisier, Lopeo (4-1) stayed on powerfully in testing conditions to win the British EBF Peter Willett Future Stayers’ Maiden Stakes.<\/p>\n
Career highlights for Ryan include last year\u2019s Prix de l\u2019Arc de Triomphe win on Bluestocking and a July Cup success on Shaquille.<\/p>\n
“I wasn\u2019t aware of 1,000 career winners but I was aware I was approaching 1,000 in Britain as I\u2019ve a friend who is always on about it, so I\u2019ve a few more to go for that. It\u2019s great to get it,” Ryan told Racing TV.<\/p>\n
“I\u2019ve had a lot of good support from good people and I\u2019ve a fantastic agent (Steve Croft) behind me, I think I\u2019ve ridden 850 winners under him so I owe it all to him.<\/p>\n
“I had an unbelievable grounding with Richard Hannon which helped me get the Amo job and that evolved on to Ralph (Beckett), it\u2019s been a good journey. So far, so good.<\/p>\n
“I have a lot of support, most of the time I can leave the races at the races. This year has been great, it hasn\u2019t been as good as last year but I think I took last year for granted given what Bluestocking did.<\/p>\n
“It\u2019s something I have to learn to adapt to but I think I\u2019m coping all right with it.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Rossa Ryan secured a major milestone when riding the 1,000th winner of his career on Lopeo at Goodwood.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":392726,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4107],"tags":[1071,79,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-392725","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-racing","8":"tag-racing","9":"tag-sports","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115136487960172504","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/392725","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=392725"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/392725\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/392726"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=392725"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=392725"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=392725"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
