2026 jockey title race tightens as Roman and Suckoo return

THE race for the 2026 jockey championship title just got a major shake-up with the return of two-time defending champion Raddesh Roman and top apprentice Tajay Suckoo. Both are set to ride this Saturday at Caymanas Park after coming off injury setbacks and their comeback puts the title race back in play.

Tevin Foster made the most of their absence and surged to the lead in the standing. He currently sits on 62 wins. Roman is right on his heels with 59 wins. Suckoo is in third on 45 wins and will be looking to make up ground now that he’s back in the saddle.

With 28 racedays left in the season, three wins is nothing. One good Saturday and Roman could be back on top. One cold streak and Foster could run away with it. The championship race is officially back on.
