Quick Contact


Corey Brown is one of Australian racing’s most respected names, a jockey whose career spanned the sport’s highest levels, headlined by two Melbourne Cup victories.

A career-ending fall in 2019 brought his riding days to an abrupt close. Rather than step away from the sport, Corey turned his experience toward the next generation, dedicating himself to mentoring apprentice jockeys through the pressures and demands of a career in racing.

Corey brings a rare mix to any stage: the credibility of a champion athlete, the honesty of someone who’s faced a sudden, life-altering setback, and the perspective of a mentor now focused on helping others succeed. He speaks candidly on what it takes to reach the very top of Australian racing as a Melbourne Cup-winning jockey, the discipline and mindset required to compete at that level, and what it takes to rebuild when it’s all taken away.
