I went out to the Derby on Wednesday and think it is the most interesting thing I ever saw over here.

In Dortmund, they say the derby is more important than the championship. You can feel it around the game.

I'm used to riding horses. My father used to breed horses when I was a child. I grew up in Tipperary, in the country, and lots of people have horses there. If my parents hadn't been in the business, we would have them anyway, as pets. And my cousin Richard is a jockey.

You can't win the Kentucky Derby unless you're on a thoroughbred.

My baby will be growing up in Liverpool, so we have another Scouser.

I hope to be remembered as a very good jockey.

At the Home Run Derby, you're expected to hit home runs. You're up there trying to hit home runs.

My aim and my passion is to own and breed race horses.

I bought a racehorse, Tropical Saint, that belonged to the Queen Mother. I used to go down to Banbury and watch him train, but during a televised race, his jockey pulled up and said there was something wrong. They put him in the grass to try and settle him but found him dead in the field.
