Olivia Tubb

12 Jun 2024

Olivia Tubb is an apprentice jockey for Jonathan Portman. She entered the industry despite not coming from a horse-related background.

She completed the Pony Racing Authority’s Youth Training Scheme when she was only 12 years old, using a borrowed pony that she would ride once a month 103 miles away in Appletree Stud in Banbury.

Since then, she has continued riding out, including while studying for her A-Levels, before joining Jonathan at his Upper Lambourn Yard and gaining her full license in 2022.

In 2023, she was awarded the BHA Development Award and was also one of the first jockeys to apply for the JETS Personal Development Grant to complete a gym instructor course while injured.
