International Riders

Opportunities for foreign students 

The British Racing School is second to none, when it comes to quality of tuition for those involved in the horseracing industry, including for international riders. 

Having worked with a huge number of foreign jockeys and prospective jockeys over the years, 19 alone across the summer of 2023, the hugely experienced and knowledgeable team of jockey coaches are familiar with different cultures and racing domains. 

With exceptional training facilities including two top of the range gyms, specifically fitted out with riders in mind, the highest quality racehorse simulators and video replay options, the School also boasts its proximity to and close relations with Newmarket based trainers as a fantastic opportunity for international riders. A regular day for a foreign rider who is training at BRS includes a morning riding out in Newmarket town for a local trainer, lunch at BRS, then riding out (with video replay), fitness or simulator training in the afternoon.  

International rider training is available throughout April to August, although dates outside this period may be possible, subject to availability.
