Prayers go out to Cheryl White, the first black female jockey and the first woman at a major track to win five throroughbred races. She rode over 750 winners in her career. Her brother, Raymond, informed us that she is currently in a coma in Youngstown, OH as of May 25, 2019.
Prayers go out to Cheryl from the Black Female Equestrian community for her full recovery.
