1 Bottle of Jonnie Walker Black. I say Manne will ride 230+ winners for the season and take the Jockies title.

Why such an average whisky as the prize?

RULING champion jockey Mark Khan will be out of action until the end of June with a broken scapular.

Khan fractured the shoulder when Winter Promise broke a leg in the Spook Express Handicap at Turffontein on Monday. She was put down.

JOCKEY Dave Byrnes has been suspended for two months following a drug inquiry. Byrnes was found to have presented himself to ride at Clairwood on 8 April when a sample of breath taken contained alcohol at a concentration in excess of the threshold. He pleaded guilty and may appeal against the penalty.

Jockey Andrew Fortune has been fined R2,000 for failing to ride Vandross out to the end of the race by not displaying the same vigour and determination shown earlier, which allowed Titus Alone to finish within a short head of his mount at Kenilworth on 7 March. He pleaded not guilty and may appeal against both the finding and penalty.

South Africa: Champion jockey Mark Khan has broken his shoulder and will be out of action for two and a half months.

The injury happened at Turffontein in Johannesburg on Monday when his mount Winter Promise broke a leg and fell in a handicap. The horse had to be put down.

Khan, 40, said on Friday: "I have fractured the scapular and it's basically a crack across the shoulder blade. Fortunately it's in a good spot so there is no need for an operation.

"It will be immobilised in a sling for a couple of weeks and then there will be rehab and physio. I would imagine I will be back by the end of June.

"Injuries like this are part of the job and I have to accept them. Certainly it couldhave been worse."

Khan, stable jockey to former British amateur rider Geoff Woodruff, has been champion five times in the past seven seasons and is currently third in the table with 106 winners.

But his chances of retaining his title were already gone beyond recall as he is 60 winners behind the pace-setting Andrew Fortune, who is nearly 30 in front of Anton Marcus.

I will take you on but with a bottle of BLUE? Not to say he will not win the championship but I say he will ride less than 231 winners. If he makes 231 or more winners then you win, what do u say?

I see Andrew was carded to ride mounts allocated 56.5 kg's. Has his riding restriction been removed, or does the horse just carry overweight. Secondly, Sylvester that means Andrew will need to ride at least 5.2 winners a week to get to 230.... I reckon this one will go down to the wire....
