Did you not see the great ride Hollie Doyle gave in her win? There were 7 female jockeys riding in the Saudi Cup card. This is progress in that country in comparison to years past. It was a great event and more of these international events should be advocated.

Moses hit the nail on the head but yeah...let’s ignore basic human right atrocities, the murder of journalists, raping of women, etc...because they threw a bunch of money at some races.
It’s 2021...I’m not going to celebrate a country allowing a woman to ride as some sort of victory when the other 364 days a year women are treated like dirt.
