The champion jockey of flat racing in Great Britain is the rider who has the most wins during a season. For most of its existence, the jockeys championship was decided on the number of winners ridden between Lincoln Handicap Day and November Handicap Day, the traditional flat turf season. In 2015, it was announced that the title would be decided over a reduced timescale – the start of the Guineas Meeting and British Champions Day, roughly 24 instead of 32 weeks.[1]
A prize of £25,000 to the champion jockey and £10,000 to the runner up was also introduced as part of the 2015 changes.[2]
The championship was sponsored for the first time in 2009 by online casino 32Red and is currently sponsored by Stobart Group.
