jockey Gary L. Moore, and brother to jump jockeys Jamie Moore and Joshua Moore, and top amateur jockey Hayley Moore. He has four children. He is the grandson of trainer Charlie Moore, a well-known character who lived around the corner from Brighton Racecourse. Charlie was also a second-hand car salesman, and many stories have circulated about his dual career, including how he swapped three truck tyres in exchange for a

, and how he started training when he accidentally bought a horse by raising his hand at auction. He is also close to Gary's sister, his aunt Candy, who is also a jockey. Moore considers himself the laziest of the family.

Career

Moore starting riding at four, having lessons at his grandad's and with the pony club. However, he didn't enjoy cross country and showjumping, finding it a "bit tame" when he wanted to be doing competitive racing instead. National Hunt jockey AP McCoy rode for Moore's father when in his teens and Moore, aged 12, led him over hurdles as they schooled horses. Moore was influenced by his drive and dedication. "He wanted to ride everything in the yard. His work ethic was huge," he told an interviewer. Unlike his siblings, who knew from an early age that they wanted to race, this wasn't always clear to Moore. Football was another passion, and he had trials with Brighton and Hove Albion. Moore's first wins came as a 16-year-old, which is when he decided to take up racing as a career, although his mother Jayne tried to persuade him to stay at school and complete his A-levels believing he wouldn't make it in racing. At one point, he too did not consider himself good enough. During his A-levels, he was taking days off to ride, but this only lasted one term before he gave up. Moore rode winners for his grandad before the latter died in 2000. "I was close to him and won a couple of races before he died in 2000. I like to think it made him happy, that it brought him something at the end of his life. I'm glad he saw it." At 16, he weighed 8st 10 lb, but by the time he became champion apprentice he had to get down to 7st 13 lb.

Richard Hannon

Moore's first mentor was Richard Hannon, a trainer for whom he would still be winning big races when Hannon retired in 2013. He was sent to Hannon by his father. At the end of his first full season, he won the Cesarewitch Handicap and had

That's the way it has happened with a lot of top jockeys... I understand why Frankie ettoricompetes in fewer races. It's understandable, with our schedule."
