KERRIN MCEVOY

  • Australia

Kerrin McEvoy took up riding in 1997 before becoming the second youngest jockey to win the Melbourne Cup when partnering Brew in 2000 at the age of 20.

A third placing on the Godolphin owned Beekeeper in the 2002 Melbourne Cup catapulted McEvoy on the international stage with Godolphin contracting him as the stable's number two European rider to Frankie Dettori.

After riding 120 winners for Godolphin in Europe – six at Group One level – McEvoy returned to Australia and based himself in Sydney to ride for Darley, Sheikh Mohammad's Australian racing operation.

Announcing the end of his association with Godolphin in September 2014, McEvoy has since established himself as a leading freelance jockey.

He won his second Melbourne Cup success aboard the Lloyd Williams-owned Almandin in 2016 and then again giving Godolphin their first ever win in the race on aboard Cross Counter in 2018.

The 2018/2019 season was a remarkable one. Not only did he win that Cup, he also won major races on The Autumn Sun, Avilius, Prince Fawaz and Trekking.

However, as famously, he has won the first two editions of The Everest on Redzel.
