Bio
Alex Achard’s career received a turbo charge April 29, 2026, when Great White was added to the 2026 Kentucky Derby Presented by Woodford Reserve field after another contender was withdrawn.
Achard rode professionally in his home country of France before moving to the U.S. and riding full-time in 2018. He has built a career mainly on the Kentucky and Indiana circuits and picked up his first Grade 1 win in 2021 when In Love took the Keeneland Turf Mile Stakes.
