Yes but I can ride work with a current trainers licence. However, if I give that up and apply for a trackwork licence I will be subject to the new regulations as far as I can see. Going forward, every new rider who wishes to ride racehorses at trackwork must have completed the trackwork rider assessment and must have either a Slow Trackwork Rider or a Fast Trackwork Rider Licence.

Two completely different occupations. So all Jockey's don't ride trackwork and all trackwork riders are not Jockey's? Jockey's don't start out riding trackwork?

I see what you mean. You would need to get it covered perhaps under (b) below 122 Despite anything else in these Rules, a person who, on the day before the Transition Date, held a Class A, B or C Trainer’s Licence, may, so long as they hold a Public Trainer Licence or Owner Trainer Licence: (a) ride thoroughbred horses at racecourses, training facilities, and Trainer’s Premises; (b) [other matters to receive feedback on] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
