Huge, the type of stories we need to see more of 👏👏 🎥 Ashley Walters has signed on to direct UK feature film ‘Khadijah’, inspired by the true story of Khadijah Mellah, a teenager from Peckham, South London, who became the first Muslim woman ever to win a British competitive horse race at the age of 18 🏆 🐎 “For me, Khadijah’s journey is about far more than a horse-riding competition – it’s about what she represents for young, marginalised Black and brown girls everywhere,” said @ashleywalters ✍️

What. A. Ride🤯 I can’t believe it, loved every second of being back racing at Goodwood. Such a special day for me. I’m so grateful to Eve and all her connections for trusting me with my very first ride, and to everyone who’s supported me along the way. 6th place this time, but I couldn’t be more excited for the next opportunity to get back out racing. I won’t stop until I bring back another win! 🐎✨ I feel so blessed Alhamdullilah🫶🏽 #goodwood #jockey #firstride #amateur
