George Wood on boxing, riding angry, football fights & keeping perspective | Jockeys: The Podcast | Racing TV

"If you asked any jockey, what's the worst thing about themselves, they'd say they are too hard on themselves. You have to step back, ride with a clearer mind, and then the winners will come." George Wood is the second guest in our new Jockeys: The Podcast series and the rider tells Adam McNamara about life and in and out of the saddle. In a revealing chat, he talks about how he spends time cycling, boxing and doing hot yoga when he's not in riding action and how that helps to give him some balance. He also talks about how his career evolved from being a rising star apprentice to some leaner years afterwards and spending time in Australia and the Middle East on his way to forging a successful path as a leading rider based in Newmarket.
