Lloyd to Take a Break from Riding

Jockey Jaden Lloyd has announced an indefinite break from race riding to prioritize his health and well-being after facing ongoing struggles with weight management.

The young rider has been dealing with significant challenges over the past few months, including dehydration and the physical and mental strain that come with trying to maintain his racing weight. After careful consideration, Lloyd decided to step back temporarily to focus on restoring balance and addressing these issues.

No specific timeline has been set for his return, but his supporters and the racing community are optimistic about seeing him back on track in the future.
