Financial Management for Racing Professionals
Pasadena Management Corporation (“Pasadena”) delivers expert financial services tailored specifically for jockeys and their representatives. We handle tax, income, and expenses across multiple jurisdictions—allowing jockeys to focus on their careers while we manage the financial complexity.
Backed by proven systems, trusted processes, and deep expertise in U.S. compliance, Pasadena provides the accuracy, reliability, and peace of mind that racing professionals depend on.
Our
Services
Pasadena ensures this process is handled correctly, so our clients remain fully compliant—without ever paying more tax than necessary. You don’t need to be based in the U.S. to work with us—we support jockeys wherever their careers take them.
All services are delivered with professionalism, accuracy, and discretion, allowing jockeys to stay focused on racing while we manage the rest.
Tax & Compliance
Preparation and filing of U.S. federal and state tax returns, representation with the IRS and state authorities, audit support, and coordination across multiple tax jurisdictions.
Banking & Treasury Controls
Implementation of segregated accounts, reconciliations, dual authorization systems, and fraud prevention measures.
Support for International Jockeys
Jockeys riding in the U.S.—whether for a single meet, a winter season, or a full relocation—face specific U.S. tax obligations. Income earned in the U.S. is taxable there first, even if the jockey is based overseas. That same income must also be reported in their home-country tax return, with foreign tax credits applied under international tax treaties.
Expense & Cashflow Management
We oversee client spending on travel, accommodation, training, and medical needs, ensuring every cost is tracked, reconciled, and reported clearly.
Commercial Income Treatment
Proper structuring of sponsorships, endorsements, and ambassadorial contracts for optimal tax treatment.
Looking Closer
Case Study: Frankie Dettori
When Frankie Dettori relocated to the U.S., Pasadena was brought on to manage his financial affairs. With his international stature, multiple income streams, and ambassadorial contracts, his situation provided the perfect opportunity to test and refine our model.
Today, Frankie serves as Pasadena’s Global Ambassador, helping to promote our services within the global racing community. His experience is a powerful example of how Pasadena brings financial stability and compliance to high-profile jockeys—whether living in the U.S. full-time or competing internationally on a seasonal basis.
