jockey club
Equestrian racing association
A jockey club is an organization that regulates and promotes horse racing.
Such clubs typically license jockeys, set rules for races, and oversee breeding registries.
The term often appears capitalized when referring to a specific organization: The Jockey Club maintains the American Stud Book.
Some exclusive social clubs unrelated to racing also bear the name.
