Champion Raddesh Roman sets early pace in 2026 Jockey’s Race
After the first month of racing, champion jockey Raddesh Roman has dominated with nine wins from 37 rides, giving him a 24 per cent strike rate.
He had a standout performance on January 24, scoring a triple with The Hot Dancer, Money Box, and
Fernando, and followed it up with a double a week later with Tiffany Blu and Senor Biscotti.
Tevin Foster and Jaheim Anderson are tied for second place with six wins each.
The revelation of the season so far, however, is Anderson. A recent graduate of the Jockeys’ Training School, he announced himself with a first career triple on January 10, scoring aboard Joyfull Surprise (trainer Tensang Chung), Gelroy (Cashbert Khwalsingh), and Skill At Arms (Marlon Brown). Anderson has kept the momentum rolling, most recently partnering Total Velocity to victory for trainer Neive Graham on January 31.
Dane Dawkins, another who campaigned in Canada last year, occupies fourth spot with four wins.
