Unless I missed it in the article :woman_facepalming:t2:

Holly is a well known and accomplished rider.

Glad to read that she was breaking a few glass ceilings with this ride on the 8-year old mare True Self.

First ride by a female jockey on Saudi Cup Day, first win by a female jockey on Saudi cup Day. And, True Self had to beat Channel Maker down the stretch to do it!

Ladies Day!!

She rides like a girl. At its best, sport can show just how silly unthinking prejudice is.

I know there are people who wanted her to boycott but this is better.
