Taking My Time tells both the tall tale of George Baker's life as a
jockey, and the story of a second life emerging from the aftermath
of his horror fall on the White Turf at St Moritz in 2017. As a
rider, George scaled the highest of highs in the saddle with St
Leger victory aboard Harbour Law cementing his place among the
sport's elite, despite having the body of a man surely destined for
another occupation. Tortuous battles with the scales were
ultimately won, popularity among peers and punters was assured and
life was good and getting better. Until the terrible accident which
left him with serious head injuries forced him to restart; he had
to live again. He was the same person but different. New obstacles
had to be cleared and trauma both physical and mental needed to be
met and overcome. The story is told with the wit and wisdom that
has come to characterise George Baker, and his wife Nicola
recounts, with humour and humility, the toll taken on the those
closest to him and the perilous nature of life at his side.
