The best Serbian basketball player, Nikola Jokić, has every reason to celebrate, considering that his horse, “Demon Dell’Est,” and Italian driver Carmine Piscuoglio triumphed in the “Dužijanica” race in Subotica!
Jokić did not hide his emotions due to his horse’s victory; he even cried and then hugged a special person. Afterward, in a very cheerful mood, he spoke to the “TV Arena Sport” camera.
“I said it a long time ago. That all my great victories and all my great defeats I experienced in this sport. All these people who are involved in this sport with me, they are all my buddies, friends, family friends, so they all experience this the same way I do. So, we do this as a hobby, and this is an occasion for us to have fun, socialize, and enjoy life,” Jokić began.
He also touched upon his team from the “Dream Catcher” stable.

“With us, it’s very simple. If you don’t come first, you’re nobody. Just kidding, of course, as Vlada said, he is currently in the TOP 10 best drivers in Italy, with not so many drives, so we have to thank Francesco Alexandrini, who is our veterinarian, who has been coming to us for three years to help us. Normally, there are Nemanja and Miloš, who are, I won’t say, but the pillar of our story, and the pillar of our, how can I say, our foundation, and without them, we cannot function. My father, of course, Branislav Jokić, and uncle Sloba, Slobodan Jokić, who are responsible for some organization, and then normally, my colleague and I, who are responsible for making everything worse. Normally, Vladimir Pribić, because of whom I fell in love with this sport, and because of him, I am involved in this. This is a great success for us. As I said, I have experienced my greatest successes and greatest failures in this sport, and they know that, and they manage to control me to some extent.”
The derby in Sombor is next…
“Well, now… We are not favorites, but we weren’t here either. We hope for a miracle, but as they say, the derby is the race of a lifetime, the best doesn’t win, but the luckiest, so we’ll see what we can do,” Jokić concluded.
