Albin Jimenez

A native of Chiriquí, Panama, Albin Jimenez grew up around horses and at age 16 attended the Laffit Pincay Jr. Jockey Training Academy at Presidente Remón Racetrack in Panama City. Jimenez took out his jockey’s license in 2010 and picked up his first stakes win aboard Aggressive Elegance in May 2012. Jimenez guided Lady Fog Horn to victory in the 2016 Grade 2 Falls City Handicap at Churchill Downs for his first graded stakes win. He picked up his first Grade 1 win with Knicks Go in the 2018 Claiborne Breeders' Futurity at Keeneland, and was aboard that colt when he ran second to Game Winner in the subsequent Sentient Jet Breeders' Cup Juvenile. Jimenez rides primarily in Kentucky and Indiana and has won six jockey titles at Turfway Park through spring 2018.
