Stuart Edmunds: 'I'm learning to ski by watching YouTube videos'

What advice would you give your ten-year-old self?
Listen better at school and never grow up.
What is your earliest racing memory?
The Thinker winning the Gold Cup in the snow in 1987. I was at agricultural college at Moulton in Northamptonshire at the time and I snuck out to watch the race instead of learning anything.
Which is your favourite racecourse and why?
Wherever I had my last winner. Seriously, Fakenham holds a special place in my heart as we always do well there and I also like Warwick as I had my first winner there in 2015 – Dawn Commander in a handicap hurdle ridden by Brendan Powell jnr.
