Timmy "The Tornado" Thompson
Standing at a mighty 5'2", this dynamo lives up to his nickname. When he's not scaring the pants off his competitors on the track, he's wooing them with his unique talent for harmonica solos. Yes, you heard that right—harmonica solos. His trusty steed, Thunderhoof, swears it helps with the speed.

Polly’s motto is "Light as a feather, fast as a falcon," and she isn’t joking. This jockey takes her weight seriously, preferring a diet that consists solely of air and positive vibes. Her fierce camaraderie with her horse, Sir Gallop-a-Lot, is notable—they even have matching monogrammed saddle blankets.

Timmy rampaged through last year's Royal Steeplechase, swiping first place while whistling a jaunty tune. Legend has it that his melody inspired Thunderhoof to run like the wind. Meanwhile, Polly swept the prestigious Gold Gallop Cup, setting a record time and rumors about her integration of motivational mantras into her pre-race regimen. Turns out, Sir Gallop-a-Lot appreciates a good pep talk!
