After nearly 10 years riding in the UK, I’ve decided today has been my final one. I would like to thank everyone who has supported me along the way. I’m looking forward to seeing what the future holds.👍🏻

- Back in October last year, Stefano and I spoke about moving over to Australia “ fuck it mate, let’s do it” I wish this conversation never happened. The kindest guy I’ve ever met and it’s been an absolute pleasure babysitting you the last few years. I’ll never forget you. 💔🇮🇹With deep sadness, the Cherchi family have announced their beloved son Stefano passed away peacefully today. The family are very grateful for the love, prayers & messages sent by the racing community across the world. 💔💔💔
- Thanks everyone for the messages, can’t get through them all just yet . Fractured my spine in 2 places not sure how long I’ll be off for yet . Gutted for the @godolphin team and their loss of a beautiful filly 😢
- And that I will ❤️🇮🇹"I'll make him proud." A wonderful tribute from fellow Australian-based jockey @EoinWalsh3 as he reflects on the life of good friend Stefano Cherchi...
00:00 - He’s alive ! Walks out of hospital abusing us for not leaving his clothes inside 😂 nice bang to the head but we all think he needed that 🤣@AtTheRaces @RacingPost @GTYarmouthRaces
- Didn’t think I’d get my 100th winner this easy 🤠😂The easiest winner of the day in the most controversial race – a walkover for Greybychoice at @LingfieldPark…
00:00 - Looking forward to being back in the saddle tomorrow with a couple of rides, it’s been a long 3 months but glad I can finally return . No better place either to test my fitness than Southwell 🤣
- Only human . Mistakes happen. Doesn’t take away from him being a promising rider !Circuit too soon - George Rooke has received a 14 day ban after this ride on Sophar Sogood at @WolvesRaces
00:00 - Delighted to have finally rode out my claim tonight . Thank you very much to everyone who has supported me through the years . #keepkicking 😊🏆

- Hey everyone, I’ve been asked by the family of Stefano Cherchi to share this link. It’s an online card for friends to write messages on for Stefano and his family. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers as he undergoes more tests. 🙏🏻🇮🇹❤️join.au.grouptogether.com/contribute/cb4… @racing_nsw
- Good friend bringing me treats and abuse 😂Eoin has fractured his Spine in 2 places he is very sore but in good spirits he will be back soon @ChelmsfordCRC @IJF_official
- It’s been a fantastic 2 weeks for me and I’m absolutely delighted to have ridden my 1st winner for @godolphin . Fingers crossed this lad can move on to bigger things . 🏆🔵Odds-on favourite Perfect Balance easily scores at the third time of asking in the Watch on racingtv.com Novice Stakes @CatterickRaces for Saeed bin Suroor, @godolphin and @EoinWalsh3
00:00 - Great to see this filly win . I told Dave Evans on her 4th start to keep her going that she would win a race, unfortunately for him, he moved her on .If at first you don't succeed.. you will at the 1️⃣0️⃣6️⃣th attempt 😂 Incredible scenes at @haydockraces as seven-year-old Celerity sheds the maiden tag on his 106th outing for Lisa Williamson & Erika Parkinson - his first run was back in April 2016 👀
