The jockey known as "The Long Fellow" was John "Long John" McGinty. He earned this nickname due to his tall stature compared to other jockeys, which was relatively unusual in a sport where shorter riders are typically favored for their weight advantage. McGinty was active in the late 19th century and made a significant impact in horse racing during his career.
