Journalist

A Thoroughbred racing journalist is a media professional who researches, writes, and reports on all aspects of the Thoroughbred racing industry — including race meetings, horses, trainers, jockeys, breeding, sales, and major events.

Their role is to inform, analyse, and engage the public and industry participants through news articles, feature stories, interviews, and opinion pieces across print, digital, television, and radio platforms.

Some of the key responsibilities of a Journalist include:

• Race Coverage & Reporting
• News and Industry Reporting
• Feature Writing and Analysis
• Multimedia and Digital Content
• Collaboration & Networking

A Thoroughbred racing journalist is the storyteller of the racing world — capturing the excitement of competition, the depth of form analysis, and the human stories behind the sport.

They combine racing knowledge, writing craft, and media awareness to produce content that informs punters, engages fans, and preserves the narrative of Thoroughbred racing — from the stables to the winners’ circle.
