In MT "If a ship absorbs enough energy to make a jump and is supplied with sufficient fuel, it may jump at the end of the turn."

The battle rider would have to have fuel to make the jump.

Using the CT Annic Nova's jump drive you can probably put jump drives on battle riders. One negative is that once in system the battle rider is not capable of charging the jump drive to leave if things go south. Another negative is that the space devoted to the jump drive takes away weapons and armor.
