Paul Hanagan chats with Emmet about his shocking decision to retire after a glorious career as a jockey. He reflects on the highs and lows, the sacrifices he made for his position as a retained jockey for owner Hamdan Al Maktoum, what it took to become a dual Champion Jockey, the great horses he rode, the injuries he faced, his embarrassment after his controversial Royal Ascot win on The Riddler, and what led to his decision to retire. Paul also continues our conversation about how difficult it is to be a jockey in Great Britain with the sauna ban and the new BHA Whip Rules. Additionally, he talks to us about his exciting new role with The Good Racing Company. Plus, Thady Gosden walks us through his leading contenders at York, while trainer John Quinn gives us an update on superstar sprinter Highfield Princess as she aims for back-to-back Coolmore Nunthorpes.
