Jockeys are free agents, nominated by horse trainers to ride their horses in races, usually for a fee (which is paid regardless of the prize money the horse earns for a race) and a cut of the purse winnings.
Jockeys usually start out when they are young, riding trackwork in the morning for trainers, and entering the riding profession as an apprentice jockey.
An apprentice jockey has a master, which is a horse trainer, and also is allowed to "claim" weight off the horse's back (if a horse were to carry 58 kg, and the apprentice was able to claim 3 kg, the horse would only have to carry 55 kg on its back).

 Black Winning Jockeys in the Kentucky Derby - James Robert Saunders - African Bookstore
James Winkfield was the winning jockey in both 1901 and 1902 with winning race times of two minutes and seven seconds and two minutes and eight seconds, respectively.
The stakes were high: Black jockeys who won a race in the late 1700s and 1800s sometimes won freedom from slavery as well.
This work examines the presence of fl jockeys in the Kentucky Derby, from the first instance of slaves working as stable hands and tending their masters horses to the first fl jockey to win the prestigious Kentucky Derby in 1875 and the continued participation of fl jockeys in the Kentucky Derby.

 ESPN.com - Horse Racing - Banned riders confront Churchill security
Meanwhile, two high-ranking officials with The Jockeys' Guild were at Churchill on Wednesday and said they were frustrated by what they called a refusal by Sexton to meet with them to discuss the dispute.
As they did, the banned jockeys, standing only a few feet away, glared at them - and one banned jockey was even seen to mouth the word "scab" - but their stares were not returned.

Jockeys only squeeze 'em a bit now and are out [suspended].
"There are some jockeys who are antagonistic, someone wants to come out underneath them on the corner three deep when making a run and they want to engage for the next 50m in banging him back in behind them, at the expense of their own horse.
"A jockey should have a reasonable idea of the opposition, the pace in the race and to ride his mount to the variable conditions of the race," he explained.

Jockey Dean Sarvis has been removed from the list of jockeys barred from riding at Churchill Downs through the remainder of the meet after it was discovered he was not among the riders who refused to accept mounts when the Louisville racetrack refused to increase the $100,000 in insurance coverage it provides riders during races.
Churchill Downs said it mistakenly put Sarvis's name on the list, but it was determined later he was not at the meeting among the jockeys on November 7.
The removal of his name leaves the list of jockeys excluded for the remainder of the meet at 14.

In the past, a 14-member nominating committee vetted the lists for possible oversights, and then whittled the lists down to the finalists, who were released to the public and subsequently sent to approximately 190 voters.
Among the notable jockeys who are not on the list are Chris Antley and Patrick Valenzuela.
