www.latimes.comHere’s the latest on Flavien Prat.
- In 2020 he tested positive for COVID-19 after racing at Los Alamitos, with news noting a 10-day quarantine and ongoing health monitoring. This was during the early pandemic period and affected several riders that meet, including Prat.[2]
- More recently, Brisnet and other racing outlets profile Prat as a leading jockey with ongoing activity in U.S. racing circuits, including Del Mar and New York, reflecting his continued high-level rides and stakes appearances. These sources track his standings and recent mounts rather than a single breaking news item.[6][8]
- There are various past articles and profiles from 2015–2025 mentioning Prat’s career highlights, moves between venues (France to the U.S., and California to New York), and notable rides in Breeders’ Cup, Kentucky Derby, and Preakness contexts.[3][4][5][10]
If you’d like, I can narrow to a specific aspect (e.g., latest race results this season, current status of any recent injury news, or upcoming mounts) and pull the most up-to-date items. Would you prefer results from 2026 season and current health status, or a summary of his recent stakes rides and mounts?
