Lisa Prestwood - first SA woman jockey - A Tribute - Kevin Harris - 2003

A special tribute to trail-blazing South African woman jockey Lisa Prestwood - the first woman jockey in South Africa. For any young woman, a career as a jockey in South Africa is a difficult and courageous choice. But there was a time - not so long ago - when it was not even an option - when women were refused entry to the Jockey Academy of South Africa. The first courageous woman to effectively break down the door of prejudice when refused entry to the Summerveld Academy in 1985 was Lisa Prestwood. It took Lisa twelve years but on her first engagement in South Africa at Gosforth Park Race Course on 3rd August 1997 Lisa changed the course of history when - out of her three rides - she rode two winners & one second. And that was just the beginning .... this is her story. Her story is updated in 2013 on the video posted as "Women Jockeys" - Episodes 1 & 2.
