Jockeys across North America on November 28 will be asked to donate one mount fee to the Julia Brimo Fund, which was set up to help the injured rider with rehabilitation expenses.

Jockeys also will wear two patches on their boots that day, one that reads “Julia” and the other reading “PDJF” for the Permanently Disabled Jockeys Fund.

Brimo, the 2003 Sovereign Award winner as Canada’s outstanding apprentice jockey, suffered head and back injuries in a spill at Keeneland Race Course on October 30. She is undergoing rehabilitation in Toronto at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre and is expected to be transferred to the Lyndhurst Centre, a spinal cord rehabilitation facility.

The Julia Brimo Fund was established at Fifth Third Bank by Cindy Werner, wife of trainer Ronny Werner. Donations can be made by sending a check made out to the Julia Brimo Fund to Cindy Werner at 1116 Flat Rock Road, Louisville, KY, 40245.
