It is well known how much Jokić loved his horses and the pets he kept in Sombor, and with some of them he participated in major races throughout Europe.

So last year it was recorded in Italy and this time even in Sweden and Solvalla.

The Serbian basketball player was on hand to support his friend Alessandro Gocciadoro – whose Bengurion Jet is in the Elite Race this afternoon.

He went to Stockholm, where an elite horse race was held, and his horse celebrated at one of them.

According to people filming him on social media, he likes to walk and chat with drivers during trotting races, and he is in no mood to give interviews to media trying to Try to get a statement from him.

Jokić also received a gift of flowers from the organizers as well as a standing ovation from the audience.

The 2m 11cm Jokic was also seen talking to Solvalla sporting director Anders Malmrot, perhaps discussing the star’s future plans to become a trotting coach.
