Just give allowances to overweight jocks. I see that some horses have 2lb overweight jocks.

The weight limits are stupid. Why not raise them by 20lb so jockeys don't have to starve themselves.

They weigh like 15 year old boys.

Did everyone in the Wild West weigh like jockeys? What about Mongolian horse riders?
Report Gaze733 April 14, 2021 6:32 PM BST
"Total weight of rider plus tack must not exceed 250 lbs"

That's almost 18 stone. But racehorses can carry only 12?
