2025 INTERNATIONAL RACING OPPORTUNITY

10-01-2025

Fegentri gives opportunities to amateur jockeys to enjoy race riding abroad. Last year both Serena Brotherton and Fletcher Yarham did a great job representing GB and Serena finished the season winning the Silver Spur for the Ladies as official runner-up to the World Champion – a fabulous achievement.

Fegentri offers a unique chance to see the world of international racing first hand and all travel expenses are met by the AJA with each host country providing accommodation. It presents challenges whilst combining your racing plans in the UK but you meet like-minded people, form friendships and enjoy unforgettable experiences.

Fegentri rules now allow up to 3 of both gentleman and lady riders to represent their country and take part in the FEGENTRI WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP FOR LADY RIDERS and the FEGENTRI WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP FOR GENTLEMEN RIDERS. In addition there is a jump element of Fegentri – The Gentlemen’s League – which gives limited opportunities to both Gentleman and Lady riders to ride over obstacles.

A main representative of each flat racing trio will be selected to compete for the title of World Champion (and be solely invited if within the top rankings from 1st October until the year end).

Applications are invited from amateur jockeys to take part and represent Great Britain abroad. Jockeys must have ridden a minimum of 5 winners (preferably under rules but can include point-to-points and Arabian races) with ladies able to ride easily at 58 kg (9 stone) and gentlemen ideally at 62 kg (under 10 stone ie 9 stone 12 lbs).

Please request an application form by e-mailing sph.oliver@btinternet.com and return together with two photos as stated on the form if you would like to apply. Please don’t hesitate to e-mail through any queries in the meantime. You can also visit the FEGENTRI website at https://www.fegentri.com
