Shaun Xavier Bridgmohan (born June 24, 1979, in Spanish Town, Jamaica) is a Jamaican-American jockey who competes in Thoroughbred horse racing.

At age thirteen, Bridgmohan's family emigrated to the United States, settling in South Florida where he developed an interest in horse racing.

After graduating from high school he pursued a riding career and in August 1997 earned his first win at Calder Race Course.

Six months later on February 15, 1998, he won six races on a single card at Aqueduct Racetrack in Queens, New York, finishing 1998, which was his breakout year, as the winner of the Eclipse Award for Outstanding Apprentice Jockey.
