To commemorate its 75th anniversary, the Jockeys' Guild has issued a limited edition set of 152 trading cards featuring top Thoroughbred and Quarter Horse jockeys. Proceeds benefit the Permanently Disabled Jockeys Fund.
The set includes Hall of Fame members, Eclipse Award winners (outstanding jockey and apprentice), George Woolf Award winners, Mike Venezia Award winners, champion Quarter Horse riders, Sam Thompson Award winners, riders with more than 5,000 wins, riders in the top 30 all-time in earnings, and other fan favorites who have had outstanding careers, the Guild said in a release.
The back of each card includes information about the jockey, including birthday, birthplace, active riding years, a short biography, and lifetime statistics.
The set can be purchased at www.JockeyTalk360.com for $20 plus $2.95 shipping/handling.
