Racing remains a sport where women and men compete on an equal footing against each other, and it is that uniquely competitive atmosphere which is at the heart of the new TG4 documentary “Jump Girls”, the first episode of which aired Thursday night.
It’s RTÉ’s television pick of the day, and we hope it’s yours too. #JumpGirls part one of a two part documentary film by @TouchlineMedia and @lukemcmanus on the incredible women in racing is on @TG4 at 9.30pm tonight. @baitweets https://t.co/xa7sGAHCkL

Director Luke McManus and star jockey Katie O’Farrell are in studio to talk about fighting your corner, not moaning, networking and climbing the ladder, bouncing back from injuries, Jessica Harrington’s 12 Rules For Life, and just what it feels like to be a jockey when it all comes together on the day.
Was lucky enough to get a sneaky-peek of #JumpGirls and can confirm it’s definitely worth the hype… fascinating insights into the work of the women at the forefront of Irish racing. The first part airs tonight on TG4 at 9:30PM – not to be missed! #20×20 pic.twitter.com/n1zmLx3Jda
