Anna Rosie Napravnik has already won 221 races this year, therefore becoming the fifth jockey with more wins in the United States. The funny fact is she is still not old enough to drink a beer to celebrate her victories.

The eighteen-year-old is the industry’s sensation after winning at Laurel Park last spring, and gaining a place at Pimlico with her roster, Academic Queen.

Napravnik looks just like any other teenager: sunglasses on her red hair, a pink cell phone clipped to her tight blue jeans and platform sandals.

Despite her regular teenage appearance, she considers herself quite unusual. What is absolutely clear for everyone is that she is not the typical school dropout.
