British jump racing Champion Jockey

In Great Britain's National Hunt racing, the title of Champion Jockey is bestowed on the jockey who has ridden the most winning horses during a racing season. From its inception in 1900 through to 1925, the award was given to the jockey who had ridden the most winners during a calendar year (January to December). Beginning in 1926, this changed, instead identifying the jockey who had ridden the most winners during a campaign season; the 1926 winner was rewarded for the 1925–26 season, for example.
Tony McCoy was Champion Jockey 20 times, which is more than any other winner; he also recorded the most wins in a season, with 289 in the 2001–02 season. The award has been shared on three occasions: in 1944–45, in 1968–69, and in 1981–82. Over the years, three amateurs have won the title, though none more recently than 1919. One of them, Jack Anthony, won both as an amateur (in 1914) and as a professional (in 1922). Racing was suspended for several years during World War II, which meant there was no Champion Jockey in 1943 or 1944.
In the 2015–16 season for the first time the championship was rewarded with prize money, with the 2015–16 champion receiving £15,000 and smaller prizes being awarded down to fifth place. Any Champion Jockey who wins the championship from 2016 onwards will receive the new trophy designed by Asprey and chosen by Sir AP McCoy after the previous one was gifted to Sir AP upon his retirement.
