Tommie Jakes, a 19-year-old apprentice jockey, has died. He was tied to George Boughey’s stable and had recorded 59 career wins, with 19 of them in 2025. His most recent victory came on October 18 at Catterick aboard Fouroneohfever, and he rode at Nottingham the day before his passing. The racing community has paid tributes, and colleagues, including the Injured Jockeys Fund and the Professional Jockeys Association, have issued statements expressing sorrow and asking for privacy for his family during this difficult time. Chelmsford and Southwell racecourses, among others, planned to observe marks of respect in the wake of the news.
