There is still so much more to do in racing and the world in general. Just because anyone looks "normal" on the outside, there can be so much going on on the inside, mentally and/or physically. Throughout this week I'll be sharing my stories #itsgoodtotalk

Does this story sound familiar.....? Apostolos (who we stay with in Corfu) went to the vet. There was a kitten there who had been abandoned. He took the kitten home 🤣 Look forward to meeting her on Wednesday 🥰

The struggle is one I never could have imagined 😪

Good luck to all going to #ChampionsDay @Ascot today. I was hoping to go, but had a bit of a tough week. Faves running today are Caballo De Mar, Believed, Ten Bob Tony, Zavateri and Bay City Roller. Many congratulations to @loughnane_billy. I hope all have a great day and are safe home 💚

Anxiety is a bit like addiction. You're never truly better. You manage it, but some days life overwhelms you, and all those anxious feelings come back. I deal with so much more than I used to, and I just have to remind myself of that on the bad days 💚

Weirdest Airbnb I've ever stayed in.... Had to pick up keys from a corner shop. TV has been removed. In a flat described as ultra modern, there's NO WIFI and one saucepan. Security chain is broken, had to go out to buy cleaning supplies. Thankfully I have Internet dongle, and there's a Sainsburys Local nearby!

Popped into Bristol for a coffee and change of scenery. Life is pretty hectic right now. I have a few blogs to write which I hope to do when I'm in Corfu animal sitting at the end of the month 🙏 Also in the process of organising the winter stable visit schedule 💚 #MentalHealth – at Bristol, England

Every 90 minutes, someone in the UK takes their own life. Mental health doesn’t discriminate. Paddy Pimblett, Chris Kirkland, Mark and Paul talk through their experience with mental health and the importance of speaking out ❤️ #WorldMentalHealthDay

Can't believe I wrote this nearly 7 years ago. I received so much criticism from the industry for writing it. But 7 years later, nothing has changed and #GoRacingGreen is still not at a racecourse. #TheWholeOfTheMoon bit.ly/4jc5C9P
