On this episode of The Horse Whisperer Podcast, we are joined by two of the top jockeys in the world.
Luan Machado
Born in Brazil, Luan was riding horses by the time he was 11, and now he’s dominating American tracks. He’s a four-time leading jockey at Turfway Park — taking the crown in 2019, 2023, 2024, and 2025 — with over 600 career wins and more than $26 million in earnings.
And now, the spotlight gets even bigger as Luan is heading to the starting gates at this year’s Kentucky Derby atop Final Gambit!
Florent Geroux
Born and raised in France, Florent built his career in the U.S. with major wins in the Breeders’ Cup, Pegasus World Cup, and Kentucky Oaks, riding champions like Gun Runner and Monomoy Girl.
A delayed winner of the controversial 2021 Kentucky Derby on Mandaloun, Florent will share his unique experience in that race, as well as thoughts on his victory in the 12 million dollar Dubai World Cup on Hit Show earlier this month.
We’re excited to hear about his path to the top, what drives him, and the stories behind the silks.
