Common Sense Note
Parents need to know that this docu-soap accentuates the drama in its subjects' personal and professional lives, so viewers can expect some shows of temper (yelling, knocking stuff down, etc.) and plenty of tears. Jockeys often discuss the danger inherent in horse racing, and some scenes show accidents that send both horse and rider skidding across the ground. In heated moments, language is a concern (though words like "f--k" are bleeped). On the positive side, the series includes two women -- who are in the minority in this typically male-dominated profession -- among its seven-jockey cast.
