Riding Overseas
In all Countries it is advisable to contact the respective Country's PRA for the information and Jockeys Associations.
As a Licensed Australian jockey, one can ride on their State/Territory license for a maximum of 30 days in Britain, but that doesn’t mean that you’re covered under your State/Territory of origin under Workers Compensation re Hospital and Medical expenses AND for Weekly Benefits when you ride outside of your jurisdiction… You’re not!
