Michelle Payne is an Australian horse racing icon and the first female jockey to win the Melbourne Cup in 2015, riding Prince of Penzance to victory and breaking barriers in a male-dominated sport.

Ten years on from that magical win, I speak to her about:

• Growing up with ten siblings
• Making history as the only female to win the Cup
• The dark side of fame
• Brain injuries from her career
• Dealing with the loss of her sister
• The role of faith
• Her living and working relationship with her brother Stevie
• Her new books & what she’s working on now
