Timeline

1979

Mirco Demuro (ミルコ・デムーロ, January 11, 1979 -) is an Italian jockey based in Japan.

His younger brother, Cristian, as well as their sister, Pamela, is also a jockey.

Their late father Giovanni was also a jockey.

1994

Mirco Demuro first earned his jockey license in 1994 and became the leading learning jockey of Italy in 1995.

1997

He became the leading jockey of Italy from 1997 to 2000.

Among the horses he rode in Italy was Falbrav, who he rode on the horse's maiden race.

1999

Demuro first came to Japan in 1999, and won his first graded race in Japan in 2001 when he won the Kokura Daishoten with.

2003

Demuro won his first Japanese Grade I race when he won the Satsuki Sho with Neo Universe on April 20, 2003.

The two went on to also win the Japanese Derby held on June 1; making him the first non-Japanese jockey to win the Tokyo Yushun.

The crowd celebrated the jockey with a "Mirco" chant, to which Mirco showed tears of joy.

Mirco later recalled that "the joy he felt that day was comparable to that of when he won the Derby Italiano. Being watched on and cheered by so many fans at horse racing is a rare occurrence, especially when that is the Derby. It was as though I became Nakata from soccer".

With Neo Universe clinching two of the Triple Crown, many anticipated the horse to win all three of the Triple Crown.

However, the policy of short-term licence (短期免許) system employed by the Japan Racing Association at the time did not allow for foreign jockeys to ride in Japan for more than three months a year; something which Mirco had already used up by that point.

The JRA had to change the rule to allow for foreign jockeys (such as Demuro) to ride the same horse at a GI race if said horse had already won two other GI races in the same year; allowing for him to continue riding Neo Universe.

However, he was unable to win the third leg of the Triple Crown, as the horse finished third at the Kikka Sho.

The following year, Demuro became the first foreign jockey to win the Satsuki Sho for two years in a row after winning the race once again with Daiwa Major.

2011

In March 26, 2011, Mirco Demuro became the winning jockey of the Dubai World Cup with Victoire Pisa, who was sired by Neo Universe.

This was the first time a Japanese horse had won the race, and for Demuro became the first GI win outside of Italy and Japan; with Demuro commenting that this was his best race ever.

2012

On October 28, 2012, Demuro won the Autumn Tenno Sho with.

The race was spectated by Emperor Akihito and Empress Michiko, and after performing the winning run, Demuro, in defiance of JRA policy specifically forbidding jockeys to get off their horse until the post-race weigh-in barring incapacitation, dismounted from the horse and kneeled to the Emperor and Empress.

This action was briefly put in to question by JRA judges, but was ultimately deemed that "the winning jockey only did as he was instructed, which was to show appropriate respect to The Emperor and Empress" and was not punished for his actions.

2013

Demuro became the first foreign jockey to take the JRA full-time jockey license exam in 2013, but could not pass the exam.

2015

Demuro, together with Christophe Lemaire, passed the exam in January 2015, making them the first jockeys from abroad to become a full-time JRA jockey.
