Best Answer

I have heard numbers from approximately 400-600. The actual number depends on several things. Jockeys have to have a license to compete and the number of licensed riders changes over time. Also, not every person who has a jockey's license actually rides in races, they might be an exercise rider who has a jock's license so they can ride in races three or four times a year. A lot of jockeys who ride regularly are members of the jockey's guild so a good idea of a more accurate number would be counting members of the guild, though there are plenty of riders who are not guild members.

What is the difference when you ride many types of horses?

Every horse has a different feel when you are riding him. More broadly, riding an Arabian will feel very different from a Thoroughbred, and both will be different from a Quarter Horse or a Saddlebred. Each breed has a different back length, barrel diameter and natural carriage of the body; all of this affects how it feels to ride the horse.
