Pioneering jockey Khadijah Mellah, from Peckham, became the first UK jockey to compete in a horse race in Britain wearing a hijab. 

A minute later, she made history again by riding her mount, Haverland, to victory in the Magnolia Cup at Goodwood. A film was made of her remarkable story and an academy set up in her name to help other youngsters from under-represented urban areas pursue a career in racing.

24-year-old Khadijah explains how, as a young Muslim woman, she’s changing perceptions in sport. She recently chatted to the King and Queen, who she's met a number of times, and took part in the Hillclimb at Goodwood’s Festival of Speed in an Aston Martin Valkryie with F3 legend Peter Dunbrek.
