Jockey Club offices

The Jockey Club sets the rules for horse racing, maintaining strict governance with only 50 members. Membership changes occur only upon a member's death. All involved in racing, including owners, trainers, and jockeys, must be licensed. The Jockey Club's blacklist can restrict access to race tracks. It uses the Bertillon system to identify horses and maintains records in the American stud book to track pedigreed horses.
