Ben Jones

Ladbrokes Ambassador

Ben Jones is a leading professional jockey who has been a Ladbrokes ambassador since October 2025. Now into his second season as Ben Pauling's number one jockey, the Welshman is very much in the form of his life.

Jones' first notable success came with Harry Redknapp-owned Shakem Up'arry, who won at the 2024 Cheltenham Festival. Jones also went on to have his first Grade 1 winner at the 2024 Ladbrokes Christmas Festival at Kempton, where The Jukebox Man claimed the Ladbrokes Kauto Star Novices' Chase.

Ben's career has since gone from strength to strength, and after recording 100 wins with Ben Pauling in December 2025, the biggest day of his life so far came on Boxing Day, where he landed the Ladbrokes King George in sensational fashion, again achieving success for the Pauling and Redknapp team.

Ben provides exclusive weekly blogs and videos for Ladbrokes, detailing his best chances and sharing unrivalled insight and opinions from the saddle.
