Danny Beasley
Danny Beasley was born at Berrigan, in the southern districts of New South Wales.
A career in the saddle was always in the back of Danny's mind as his father Bob was a successful jockey on the country circuit in his home region.
Riding winners came naturally for Danny and it was his success in the saddle for Wodonga trainer Peter Maher that gave a youthful Beasley his first exposure to city racing
Since then Beasley has established himself as one of the countries best jockeys having racked up multiple Group winners in an already sparkling career including six Group Ones on Grand Armee.
Danny is John Singleton's number one stable rider for whom he has ridden many winners including Fashions Afield and Mirror Mirror.
