Shaun Xavier Bridgmohan (born June 24, 1979, in Spanish Town, Jamaica) is a jockey in American Thoroughbred horse racing.
At age thirteen, Bridgmohan's family emigrated to the United States, settling in South Florida where he developed an interest in horse racing. Before becoming a jockey, and while still in school, he worked at a Florida racetrack as a hot walker, groom, and as an exercise rider. After graduating from high school he pursued a riding career and in August 1997 earned his first win at Calder Race Course. Six months later on February 15, 1998, he won six races on a single card at Aqueduct Racetrack in Queens, New York, finishing 1998, which was his breakout year, as the winner of the Eclipse Award for Outstanding Apprentice Jockey. On December 22, 2007, he again won six races on a single card, this time at Fair Grounds Race Course in New Orleans, Louisiana.
On April 1, 2017, he recorded his 3,000th win.[1]
