Craig Staples

@mgrant53 @RacingWATV @mmsnippets Thank you Michael

@RacingWATV @mmsnippets @CraigStaples77 @CraigStaples77 is clearly the most effective stakeholder advocate in WA (and probably Australian) racing. He will continue to do an outstanding job making racing administrators and officials accountable. The Jockeys are lucky to have him.

Cheers to Craig Staples 👏 33 years, 638 wins, 2 Group 1s, and a lifetime of class in the saddle. As he retires from riding and steps further into his leadership roles with WAJA and AJA, his influence on racing is only set to grow. Race 5 today is named in his honour. A champion rider, a true gentleman, and an even better advocate for our sport. Happy retirement, Craig! 🎥 Feature coming soon to Racing WA TV.

Every race meeting across Australia will come to a standstill today - as we pause to honour the contributions of current and former jockeys, remember the fallen, and pray for safety during the upcoming season. #NationalJockeysCelebrationDay arcc.org.au/news/national-…

Dr Felicity Hawker signs off on her final day after nearly two decades looking after our jockeys on racedays. A female pioneer for intensive care in Australia and New Zealand, Dr Hawker has officiated at every racetrack in Victoria & has made an immense impact. Here she is being celebrated by those she's cared for all these years. Thank you for your contribution to our industry, Dr Hawker 🙏

We need action, Kevin Ring and our president Craig Staples have been working tirelessly but to no avail, this is not good enough urgent action is required !

This year I am participating in run for the kids supporting the @GoodFriAppeal please donate if you can for a great cause. 🤠 runforthekids.gofundraise.com.au/page/Damian-18…

What a beautiful moment for @LaneDamian with Dean Holland's children at the Newmarket trophy presentation 🥹

Damian Lane accepts the Dean Holland Trophy from Lily Holland 💕

Well done to this legend, @ZRKD you excelled today and it was an extremely popular win with your peers. Enjoy the moment it will last a lifetime

Racing stands still this weekend, as race meetings across Australia pause for a minute silence to remember our fallen jockeys and to pray for safety during the upcoming season. arcc.org.au/news/national-… @JockeysAssoc @JockeysTrust #NJCD2024 #Jockeys

Heartfelt and genuine to the core!

What a wonderful sight seeing a happy and extremely positive Chelsey Reynolds with Kevin Ring. Chelsey, her family and masters Glen Kent and Wayne Francis all send their appreciation to everyone for ongoing support.

Come on guys if can afford to have a bet today you can afford to give a small donation to help a jockeys kid going through a tough time and has a tough life ahead . Let’s make things easier for him ..Support Liam Layt Through Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy gofund.me/f689f70b

It's not weak to speak. Racing Mates, as well as a lot of other organisations, are always there in tough times with someone on the end of the phone to have a chat. Reach out the next time you need a mate to talk to.

Jockey Craig Williams joined Victoria’s Premier Jacinta Allan, Veterans, RSL Victoria representatives & sporting talent at the Shrine of Remembrance to unveil the upcoming #ANZACDay commemoration plans in Victoria.

For those who would like to pay their respects to Stefano, a memorial service will be held at All Saints Catholic Church, 48 George Street, Liverpool, NSW, on Monday, April 8th, at 10:30 a.m.

It is with great sadness that the Cherchi family have said good bye to their beloved son Stefano. The Jockeys of Australia and worldwide send their sympathies and love to all. RIP Stefano 💔

With deep sadness, the Cherchi family have announced their beloved son Stefano passed away peacefully today. The family are very grateful for the love, prayers & messages sent by the racing community across the world. 💔💔💔

Great trip to @FlemingtonVRC to provide live @JockeyCam for @Racing and @Channel7. Huge thanks to all the riders and horses that help us bring the action to our fans. #JockeyCam #HelmetCam #WhereTheActionIs

Dr. Robert Kerlan, the famed California sports medicine doctor, became curious as to why they seemed to recover from serious injuries so much faster than anyone else 🧐 He undertook a study of 420 professional athletes, testing conditioning, reflexes, coordination and strength, and were astonished at the results. Jockeys graded higher than all other professional athletes💪 They had the lowest body fat of any athletes by far, and 80 percent of them could bench press more than their own body weight. These were perhaps the most finely conditioned athletes in the world 🥇 @dan2231 @foreverwildjami @TomGarner90 @ljlmvel @Richard44158292
