A social media influencer lifted the lid on his racing obsession as he prepares to take on some of the biggest names in the sport.

Basher Watts will see his syndicate horse She’s Perfect line up in the Group One Emirates Poule d’Essai des Pouliches (French 1,000 Guineas) on Sunday.

The Charlie Fellowes-trained filly will be ridden by Kieran Shoemark, just days after he lost the number one job at John and Thady Gosden’s Newmarket stable.

Watts, who operates his racing club under his nickname, said “one man’s loss is another’s gain” when signing the rider up earlier this week.

“Kieran has done so much for us as a syndicate and it is the cherry on top of a special weekend for us to have him on board her,” he said via Racing TV.
