    Minimum wage for losing jockeys rises today

    State of California Assembly Bill #649, today increases the minimum wage for losing jockeys by $10.00, from $50.00 to $60.00 they will now make for riding each race @ thoroughbred and quarter horse tracks.

    the truly bad jockey's race maybe 5 times a week. When my cousin was riding at woodbine I doubt she got more mounts than that. She usually picked up an equal number at fort erie when they raced there.

    Good news for all jockeys especially the ones that don't get many mounts.

    Is this the typical pay across the country?
