Steve Cauthen Quotations

My daughters have ponies. But they're busy with other things - dance and gymnastics. It's great that they're involved with something that's really important to them.

Michael Roberts is a great rider and a great tactician; he was always using his brain in a race. His determination to become champion jockey was unswerving. He worked night and day, day and night to do it. You must have tunnel vision to become champion jockey: you must almost block everything else out, and he did that perfectly.
