Becoming a jockey means to be truly qualified to ride and quide your horse through a field of 20 or more equally determined jockeys and horses. There few women jockey's for a reason.

Just because you are female doesn't mean you are qualified for the job!

I was at Churchhill on Wednesday and spent some time in the paddock area. You couldn’t pay me enough to get on one of those beautiful beasts.

The saddle is nothing more than a piece of leather to attach the stirrups. Being a jockey is dangerous business.
