NOT only is Tom Marquand winning punters shed loads of cash, but he’s cracking them up with his hilarious tweets too.
The top jock enjoyed a super Saturday at Ascot when riding two winners at British Champions Day.
And the afternoon was made extra special when his record-breaking girlfriend Hollie Doyle rode a double herself, including her first ever Group 1.
Marquand, 22, carried his red-hot form onto social media when responding to a tweet titled ‘Poorly explain what you do for a living’.
His whitty response “I chase my girlfriend around a field carrying a whip” sparked a huge response from racing professionals and fans.
Among those to reply was leading commentator John Hunt, who said: “I watch Tom chasing his girlfriend around a field whilst shouting loudly at them’.
