Female Jockeys in horse racing – how many have there been?

buffy asked:


Anybody got any stats on what female jockeys have competed in Thoroughbred racing? What about specifically the triple crown grade 1 races?

I know Donna Brothers was a jockey as was Julie Krone, but can’t remember where/when they rode as well as others.

Thanks!

   Dunno on how many total.

   The best currently is probably Anna Napravnik. She rides in the MD/DEL circuit.

   She has several meet titles at Laurel Park, including the just finished 07/08 Winter Meet.

   There have been a few, some where good. Julie Krone may have the best record of all the fillies.
