how much do jockeys have to weigh
How much does a jockey have to weigh? there is no specific weight but you wouldn't want to be very heavy but you should be well under 200 id say 150 is a good weight but lower is good. This is wrong. To become a jockey the average weight is 100-108, in the Kentucky Derby the weight limit is 126 pounds with gear. The average weight without gear is 100-108, with gear is about 120ish.
