Rosie Napravnik

Delaware Park

Anna Rose "Rosie" Napravnik (born February 9, 1988) is an American Thoroughbred horse racing jockey. Since beginning her career in 2005, she has regularly been ranked among the top jockeys in North America in both earnings and total races won. As of 2013 she has been in the top 10 by earnings for two years in a row and is the highest-ranked woman jockey in North America. In 2011 she won the Louisiana Derby and was ninth in the 2011 Kentucky Derby with the horse Pants On Fire. In 2012, she broke the total wins and earnings record for a woman jockey previously held by Julie Krone, in the process becoming the first woman rider to win the Kentucky Oaks, riding Believe You Can, and only the second woman jockey to win a Breeders' Cup race, winning the Breeders' Cup Juvenile on Shanghai Bobby. Napravnik's fifth-place finish in the 2013 Kentucky Derby and third in the 2013 Preakness Stakes on Mylute are the best finishes for a woman jockey in those two Triple Crown races to date, and she is the only woman to have ridden in all three Triple Crown races.
