A child jockey hugs his horse after finishing a race at Panda racetrack outside Bima, November 18, 2012. Dozens of child jockeys, some as young as eight-years-old take part in the races. Involving nearly 600 horses they take place around a dusty, oval track of 1,400 meters (nearly one mile). The reward, for the winner is a handful of cash for his family, and glory for the jockey. The grand prize is one million rupiah ($100). Those who win their groups get two cows. The chairman of the races' organising team, Hajji Sukri, denies that there is any danger to the children saying they are all skilful riders and none has been killed or seriously hurt.

Vítěz dostihu kromě slávy nedostane zaplaceno nic. Radovat se mohou jeho rodiče, a to až z 1 milionu indonéských rupií. Na koruny je to asi 2 000 Kč.
