Herb McCauley Biography

Herb McCauley is one of the most popular and richest Jockey who was born on May 2, 1957 in Durham, North Carolina, United States.

While still a small boy, Herb McCauley began riding horses on his grandfather’s farm. At age sixteen, he embarked on a career in Thoroughbred racing, breaking yearlings at William L. McKnight’s Tartan Farm near Ocala, Florida. Within two years, McCauley moved north where he began his riding career at Monmouth Park Racetrack in New Jersey. In October 1975 he rode the first of his more than three thousand career winners at Keystone Racetrack in Philadelphia. For the next twenty-three years McCauley was a top jockey at tracks in the U.S. northeast and notably rode five winners from five mounts in a single racecard on November 18, 1985 at Meadowlands Racetrack in East Rutherford, New Jersey.

On July 10, 1998, Herb McCauley suffered compound fractures to the tibia and fibula of his left leg in an accident at Monmouth Park. The injury resulted in him undergoing four surgical proceedings followed by a lengthy rehabilitation process. With his career in ruins, McCauley’s personal life suffered and he turned to alcohol in a misguided effort to cope. Having suffering from bulimia since his teens, in a May 1999 conference on the various disorders some athletes have to deal with, McCauley spoke publicly for the first time about his battle as a jockey to maintain riding weight that resulted in constant binging and purging.
