S'Manga Khumalo

I have congratulated him on the other thread.
For me, Uptothemoon was not part of script but I do see it was heavily backed.

Well Done once again.

Unfair comment I think.If S'mango must ride half of the quality horse that Anton is priveleged to ride(being retained by a top stable with top horses) ,he would be right up there with the best of them.Years ago when Fortune was beating marcus on a regular basis in the bid for the championship,he used to ask "superman ,who is this superman?"Watch Khumalo up the ladder in the next few years.

It's not an unfair comment. It's a dumbass comment.

before you guys lose the plot,this is Sylvester having a laugh,usually through a glass...

I was really rooting for him to ride the pick six. Would have been an amazing achievement.

Top jockey taking his opportunities with both hands.

Talk about stirring the pot!!!!!

The Sly....he's a sly one...we definitely need a tongue in cheek emoticon....and a foot in mouth too....

S'Manga....a good up and coming jock....very well done....(tu)

Great stuff, Smanga Khumalo is the first African jockey to have won The July ever and now makes history by becoming the first African jockey to ride 5 winners in a row including the Jackpot.

What a season for the Kwazulu Natal bred Zulu , should be more dancing in the streets of Kwa- Mashu tonight.X(

If I remember correctly Athandiwe Mgudlwa rode the jackpot at Scottsville already, but not a fiver....
