If there's a winner and I can bet on it it's close enough to a sport lol

My hats off to any woman who isn't wearing a hat today. Jeez these dolled up women in the city today make me laugh. They look like try hard poodles. 0.01% would give a rats ass about the race. I'm with them on that score too btw.

How is it not a sport? Participants train their fitness levels then compete against other participants in front of spectators.

How would you define a sport?

Jockeys are extremely tough and competitive athletes.
Horses are beautiful and graceful creatures too.
A awesome sight when a skilful jockey and horse are in full flight.

Also, thanks Dunaden, and last minute replacement jockey......profit.
