To assist connections with their choice of jockeys for the Sha Tin race meeting to be conducted on Saturday, 9 January 2016, the Club has arranged for reigning UK champion jockey Silvestre de Sousa to be available to ride at the stated meeting.
The Licensing Committee will, in due course, consider granting a Club Jockey’s licence for Jockey de Sousa for the period 9 January 2016 until 31 January 2016, both dates inclusive.
A further release will be issued at the appropriate time in relation to the Licensing Committee’s decision.
Jockey de Sousa has advised that his minimum riding weight is 116 lbs.
