↗ اشتراک‌گذاری

According to Guardian Sport, 2026 has been a transformational year for 24-year-old jockey Saffie Osborne. Having started the year with a minor race in Wolverhampton, she has since achieved significant success, including a historic victory in the St Leger in September—the first Group One win for a female jockey in a British Classic. Osborne has now secured a six-week riding contract in Hong Kong, where she is set to compete in 10 races at the Sha Tin racecourse this Sunday. Known for her ability to ride at low weights, Osborne aims to further her skills in this highly competitive environment alongside world-class jockeys.
