ABOUT THIS EPISODE
He’s the man of the moment in American racing — and this week, Umberto Rispoli joins The Hong Kong Racing Showfor a deep-dive you don’t want to miss.
The Santa Anita Derby-winning jockey talks to Andrew Brown and Alex Evers about his partnership with Journalism, the Kentucky Derby favorite. With the Run for the Roses just around the corner, Rispoli opens up about the pressure, the preparation, and the post position he’s hoping to draw. You’ll also hear from Journalism’s trainer Michael McCarthy and Eclipse Thoroughbred Partners’ Aron Wellman, who weigh in on what makes Rispoli the perfect rider for the big stage.
Plus — we rewind to Umberto’s time racing in Hong Kong, get his take on Romantic Warrior’s narrow defeat in Dubai, and dive into some candid, behind-the-scenes stories you won’t hear anywhere else.
Whether you’re a Derby diehard or a Hong Kong racing fan, this is 45 minutes of gold.
