Jockey
A jockey — small, skilled, riding another's power to win — often touches an unexpected gift, or being lifted above your station. The dream may ask where a windfall from an unlooked-for source might reach you, whether you're being carried higher than you started, and how mastering speed mirrors a chance to rise through deft handling.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for jockey, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream of a jockey, omens you will appreciate a gift from an unexpected source. For a young woman to dream that she associates with a jockey, or has one for a lover, indicates she will win a husband out of her station. To see one thrown from a horse, signifies you will be called on for aid by strangers.
