Olivier Peslier

Olivier Peslier is one of those riders who makes flat racing look almost unfairly easy — the kind of jockey whose name you hear whispered with real respect in the paddock at Longchamp or Chantilly. Growing up in the quiet countryside of Mayenne and climbing all the way to French Champion Jockey and a place in the French Racing Hall of Fame is a story that doesn't get old. For over a decade he was the go-to man for the Wertheimer brothers, which tells you everything about the trust elite ownership places in him. A true craftsman of the saddle.
