From FindLaw, Churchill Downs and the Jockeys' Guild reached an agreement last week that will keep riders from boycotting races in protest of medical insurance and safety issues.
- According to the "joint stipulation and consent order," the Jockeys' Guild has agreed to instruct its members - including more than 1,200 riders - not to stage any activities that would disrupt racing at any of the seven tracks owned by Churchill Downs Inc., including the Churchill track.
In exchange, the racetrack company has agreed to withdraw the motion for a preliminary injunction it sought to prohibit the Guild and its representatives from boycotting and price-fixing activities.
