A jockey crouched forward over a galloping racehorse, weight off the saddle in the forward seat that transformed the sport around 1900. Both figures are mid-stride.

About horse racing Emoji
Usage: Race day posts dominate: the Grand National, the Melbourne Cup, the Kentucky Derby, usually paired with a hat or a drink. Betting threads use it beside odds. It also works loosely for any race-like contest, from hiring rounds to league tables, where someone wants to cast the competitors as horses and name a front runner.
Unicode 6.0 encoded it in 2010. It is one of very few emoji showing a person and an animal as a single composite figure, and it was in the first group to gain skin tone support, which is why the modifier reaches the jockey but leaves the horse untouched.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is the jockey standing in the stirrups?
That is the forward seat, popularised around 1900 by jockey Tod Sloan. Keeping weight off the horse's back and over the shoulders measurably improved speed and became standard across the sport within a decade.
Does this emoji support skin tones?
Yes, and it was in the earliest group to get them. The modifier applies to the jockey only; the horse stays the same colour whichever tone you pick, which some users find inconsistent.
Is there a separate emoji for just a horse?
Two, in fact. There is a horse face showing only the head, and a full-body horse in profile. This one specifically depicts racing and reads oddly if you just mean the animal.
