One of the most interesting parts of the tour was the Jockeys Room, complete with sauna to help them lose those last couple of pounds. The photos below show the same jockey, Richard Kingscote, so obviously he did manage to lose the extra weight. The other photo shows a saddle, riding cloth, and the lead weights that are used by the handicappers. Each weight weighs one pound. Behind are a set of racing colours, which belong to the owner of the horse.
