Recently retired jockey, Rodney Quinn, has joined Racing NSW racing as a member of the apprentice jockey’s mentoring team.

After a career spanning 37 years, and over 2000 winners, he retired on a high winning on Merlin Mustang, at Rosehill, in his very last ride.

Quinn commenced riding at Nyngan, in central New South Wales, eventually graduating to the major Sydney tracks.

John Hawkes and Peter Snowden were never afraid to seek the services of Quinn, particularly for young horses that could prove a bit difficult to handle.
