Career - Jockey
I need assistance to choose
Jockeys will receive instructions from trainers and owners before races and will ride horses during exercises, race trials and races. They will judge the abilities of each horse and the best tactics to use to win each race and will discuss performance of horses with trainers after races or exercise gallops. They will report anything that may have affected the horse's performance in a race to stewards and other racing authorities and will answer stewards' enquiries regarding the performance of their horses. They will study videotapes of races to improve their own performance and to determine the best way to ride certain horses, after discussion with the trainer and also maintain their own riding equipment, including saddles and boots.
