I'm 16 and I've been riding since I was pretty young. I used to own horses, however at the moment due to finances I no longer do. I have a lot of experience with English training and riding and I've trained several off the track thoroughbreds for the owner of my barn. I've always had a strong interest in thoroughbred racing and it's my dream to become a jockey or trainer and I'm thin enough to be a jockey. I've gotten an offer from a friend of my aunts to start exercising his Arabian racehorses. Anyways, I live in Michigan and they just opened a track near my house (the only TB track in the state).
How do I get into racing? I'd be happy with any job at the track, grooming, exercise riding, anything to get in the experience? So where do I start? How do I get myself in there?
