Heavier at weigh-in.

How can this be explained:
a Jockey weighs in 1kg more after the race, than at the start of the race?

There are a number of possibilities :
1.) Willie Uys was in the race and 'loaned' him some weight from his saddlebag.
2.) He supported his own weight at the weigh out whilst the clerk of scales was distracted.
3.) He forgot to do the same at the weigh in.
4.) He ate a pie on the way to the start.
5.) The scale was faulty.
6.) De drank too much water at the start.
