He could have been a footballer, he who had tried out for the Brighton and Hove Albion club (England).
Ryan Moore, from a family that has linked his life to horses, has finally become a distinguished jockey.
With more than 100 Group I to his name, and a 21st victory at this level in France yesterday in Deauville (Calvados) thanks to Tenebrism during the prestigious Prix Jean Prat which he won for the first time.

The 38-year-old Englishman even achieved a clear round on the Normandy coast by transforming his two other rides into successes, winning in particular in the second highlight of the meeting, the Prix de Ris-Orangis (Gr. III). with Garus.
But it was the victory with Tenebrism that made an impression.
The Briton's partner has thus clearly outstripped the favourite, Modern Games, winner of two Groups I. The daughter of Caravaggio wins a second title at the highest level, after that in the Cheveley Park Stakes (Gr. I).
To the delight of the crack jockey who rode it masterfully.
âWe had a very good run behind the leaders, he says. When we had the opener, she provided an excellent finish, because she has a lot of speed.
In any case, it has always shown quality.

On the French side, it was a bit of grimace soup.
Particularly in the entourage of Mangoustine, winner of the Poule d'Essai des Pouliches in May and who finished ninth.
âIt's a race to forget, says ClĂ©ment TroprĂšs, the deputy president of Infinity Nine Horses, stable of the former French basketball player, Tony Parker.
A little break will do him good.
