Have you ever seen a jockey commentate a horse race live at Ascot Racecourse in England?
Oisin Murphy watches Enable and Frankie Dettori defeat Sovereign and Japan in the King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes as he calls the race LIVE.
After that effort, we think he's got a future in racing media!
At just 24-years-old, Oisin Murphy is one of the brightest young talents in the saddle and on his way to becoming one of the world's very best hoops. With 1,046 wins to his name, Murphy has already won 14 Group 1 races. The young gun developed a special bond with the ill-fated Roaring Lion, while he's now forging a formidable partnership with Kameko.
Murphy's Group 1 record:
2,000 GUINEAS - Kameko
JAPAN CUP - Suave Richard
FUTURITY TROPHY - Kameko
NASSAU STAKES - Deirdre
FALMOUTH STAKES - Veracious
QUEEN ELIZABETH II STAKES - Roaring Lion
PRIX JEAN-LUC LAGARDERE - Royal Marine
IRISH CHAMPION STAKES - Roaring Lion

JUDDMONTE INTERNATIONAL STAKES - Roaring Lion
SUSSEX STAKES - Lightning Spear
ECLIPSE STAKES - Roaring Lion
DUBAI TURF - Benbatl
PRIX DE LA FORET - Acclaim
Enable became the first horse to win the King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes three times at Ascot Racecourse, England, defeating Aidan O'Brien's duo of Japan (Ryan Moore) and Sovereign (William Buick).

Ridden by legendary jockey Frankie Dettori and trained by John Gosden, she's won 14 races, including 11 Group 1s.
A history-making third Arc title beckons at Paris, Longchamp, France in 2020.
