STEEPLECHASE JOCKEY.
Professional jockeys have weight limits, just as they do in flat racing. Weight limits for jump jockeys are traditionally higher than for flat jockeys— about 140 pounds, compared to 110 pounds. Steeplechase riders also tend to be
taller than jockeys on the flats. Some well-known jockeys—including Jacinto Vasquez and Jean Cruguet—have ridden in steeplechases, but it’s rare.
STEEPLECHASE START. Horses
don’t spring from a gate, as in flat races. Instead, they’re lined up and start from a standstill or a walk.
STEWARDS. The three presiding judges at a race meeting. These officials have the final decision on all matters pertaining
to a race and can disqualify horses who interfere with other mounts. They have the power to fine owners, trainers or jockeys who violate the rules.
