The flat racing Champion Jockey and Champion Apprentice titles are awarded annually to the jockey(s) and apprentice(s) respectively that have ridden the most winners (both turf and all-weather) in Great Britain during a set period[1] or championship season.[2] The set period has varied over time, originally covering the calendar year when all flat racing was held on turf between March and November. Later, all-weather races outside the turf season were excluded, and from 2015 the championship season was further shortened to exclude the start and end of the turf season.[3]
The list below shows the Champion Apprentice and the number of winners for each championship season since 1922.
Following the changes in 2015, the Champion Apprentice is awarded a prize of £5,000.[3]
