The Mid-Atlantic Thoroughbred Championship Series (MATCH) and The Jockeys' Guild announced a $10,000
bonus to the top jockey in the 2001 series. Jockeys will be awarded points based on their horse's finish in each race.
The jockeys have been selected for this year's NTRA All-Star Jockey Challenge at Lone Star Park. The group is led by Laffit Pincay Jr., the all-time leading jockey by number of wins, and Pat Day, who as of May 29 was one victory shy of 8,000.
Tuesday, May 29, 2001A bill to assist jockeys that passed both houses of the West Virginia legislature is set to become law today.
Friday, May 04, 2001Members of the Jockeys' Guild will not be having a very funny April Fool's Day. On April 1, the family health insurance policy covering 800 Guild members will expire. Because of skyrocketing premiums, Jockeys' Guild national manager John Giovanni said there is not enough money in the association's budget to continue making the premium payment
Wednesday, March 14, 2001Retired horseman Thomas Jefferson (Tommy) Luther, who played a key role in the formation of the Jockeys' Guild, died on Jan. 27 at a Saratoga Springs, N.Y., hospital.
Thursday, February 01, 2001The Jockeys' Guild approved a new scale of weights it hopes will be adopted immediately by racing secretaries nationwide. The new scale increases the minimum weight to 116 pounds. "We're mainly concerned about the minimum," said John Giovanni, national manager for the Jockeys' Guild. "Each generation of jockeys is getting bigger and bigger. People are killing themselves to make weight."
