Rossa Ryan secured a major milestone when riding the 1,000th winner of his career on Lopeo at Goodwood.<\/p>\n
Riding for David Menuisier, Lopeo (4-1) stayed on powerfully in testing conditions to win the British EBF Peter Willett Future Stayers’ Maiden Stakes.<\/p>\n
Career highlights for Ryan include last year\u2019s Prix de l\u2019Arc de Triomphe win on Bluestocking and a July Cup success on Shaquille.<\/p>\n
“I wasn\u2019t aware of 1,000 career winners but I was aware I was approaching 1,000 in Britain as I\u2019ve a friend who is always on about it, so I\u2019ve a few more to go for that. It\u2019s great to get it,” Ryan told Racing TV.<\/p>\n
“I\u2019ve had a lot of good support from good people and I\u2019ve a fantastic agent (Steve Croft) behind me, I think I\u2019ve ridden 850 winners under him so I owe it all to him.<\/p>\n
“I had an unbelievable grounding with Richard Hannon which helped me get the Amo job and that evolved on to Ralph (Beckett), it\u2019s been a good journey. So far, so good.<\/p>\n
“I have a lot of support, most of the time I can leave the races at the races. This year has been great, it hasn\u2019t been as good as last year but I think I took last year for granted given what Bluestocking did.<\/p>\n
“It\u2019s something I have to learn to adapt to but I think I\u2019m coping all right with it.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Rossa Ryan secured a major milestone when riding the 1,000th winner of his career on Lopeo at Goodwood.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":109929,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[40],"tags":[3004,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-109928","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-racing","tag-racing","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/109928","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=109928"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/109928\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/109929"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=109928"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=109928"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=109928"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
