The headline moment of his career so far came at Goodwood on 24 September 2025, when Sexton won a top-level race — one of the biggest prizes in British racing. For a jockey still in the early stages of their career, that is a significant marker. Goodwood is a notoriously quirky track, with its sweeping downhill bends and tricky cambers catching out riders who do not know its rhythms. Winning there at the highest level suggests Sexton is not just accumulating low-key winners but is capable of rising to a big occasion.
The clearest sign of his strengths is what happens when the sun has been out. On fast, dry ground, Sexton wins 9 times from every 43 races — a win rate of 21%, or roughly 1 in every 5. That is almost double his overall average, and it points to a jockey who times his finishes well when the ground is quick and the races tend to be more strongly run. Wet and muddy conditions may suit some horses more than others, but when the track is firm and fast, Sexton is noticeably more dangerous.
His most consistent working relationship is with trainer Julie Camacho, a well-regarded yard in the north of England. Together they have produced 18 winners from 151 races — around 1 in every 8 — which suggests a genuine understanding has built up between them. That kind of steady, productive partnership is often what turns a promising jockey into a reliable one. As for his association with Hundred Caps, one win from seven races together does not make it a standout combination on paper, but the fact it keeps being put together suggests both sides see potential there.
At 21 winners and climbing this season, with a first top-level win already on the board, Sexton looks like a jockey whose name will start appearing in more conversations.
