Emma-Jayne Wilson earned a swathe of new fans and stole the show at the Shergar Cup, winning two of the six races and losing a third in a photograph that seemed too close to call. The Canadian jockey perfectly caught the mood of this unusual raceday, hamming it up in her interviews between races, telling the crowd she wanted to hear them “yelling and screaming at the top of their lungs” as she went out for the last.

She was pipped for the Silver Saddle, given to the day’s leading rider, by Olivier Peslier, who won only one race but kept getting placed and so finished with 42 points to her 40. But this was Wilson’s breakthrough performance on British soil, considering she had twice taken part in past Shergar Cups and earned a combined total of 15 points.
