John Tapp Racing

Great to catch up with respected trainer Richard Jolly who talks of his newly formed training partnership with daughter Chantelle. He discusses the parlous state of prize money levels in SA and the exodus of trainers to other states. Richard looks back on his days as an apprentice jockey, and the thrill of riding a Group 1 winner at age 17. He talks of his transition to the training ranks, and the Derby win that launched phase two of his racing life. Richard pays tribute to the talented horses who've helped him to the top bracket of Adelaide trainers. He makes special mention of the outstanding apprentice jockeys to come through his Morphettville stables.
