Ebrahim Nader, Bahranian Jockey

New work for The National. A trip to the beautiful Hampshire countryside and a peek into the world of top end Flat Racing. Ebrahim Nader is a Bahranian jockey working for the next few months at the stable of Andrew Balding. There is a steady stream of top jockeys coming throughBalding’s yard, although it is not an official academy, and Ebrahim is tipped for stardom. A dream job for me - thanks to Charlotte and Jake at the National, and to journalist Mark Souster for making it all happen.
