The first recognized jockey club was established in Newmarket, widely accepted around 1750 as the formal founding of the Jockey Club. It was created to regulate horse racing, enforce rules, and maintain fairness. It mainly served aristocrats and racing enthusiasts, laying the foundation for modern racing governance.
