you've been here nearly 8 years but, assuming you're not taking the p****, the following explains:
To compensate for their initial lack of experience and success in comparison to fully licensed jockeys, young jockeys claim a weight allowance at the beginning of their career and ride as “Apprentices” on the Flat or “Conditionals” under National Hunt Rules. Eligible applicants for an Apprentice or Conditional jockeys licence must be aged over 16 – but under 26 years. The Apprentice and Conditional training courses are only available to those in full-time, paid employment of a Licensed Trainer. It is the Trainer who decides when the jockey is competent and ready to race-ride and makes a joint application with the individual to the British Horseracing Authority. HTH |
