Hire an Apprentice

Any Apprentices available for hire are listed here. Apprentices are eligible to a weight allowance to offset their inexperience. This allowance decreases as the jockey wins more races. Although apprentices are inexpensive in comparison to more experienced jockeys their judgement may not always be as good. Also Apprentices may not be as strong in a finish. 

Each trainer may only have one apprentice on the payroll at a time. To replace your stable apprentice simply hire another. If hiring an apprentice that is currently attached to a stable/trainer then the apprentice may be bound to ride any remaining bookings that have been made for the previous trainer even though he/she is now signed up in your stable.

Clicking on the Apprentices name will bring up a small jockey stats window to the bottom left of the screen. The player can view the apprentices current attachment details (trainer data) by Clicking on the trainers name in the CURRENTLY ATTACHED column.

Click HIRE JOCKEY to hire the selected jockey. You can fire your apprentice by clicking on the FIRE APPRENTICE button.
