Pride of SA off to the East

SA Champion jockey Lyle Hewitson will join colleagues Aldo Domeyer and Grant van Niekerk for the new Hong Kong racing season.

Van Niekerk has been there since September last year, while Domeyer, who rode a feature race winner at Happy Valley on Wednesday, only arrived at end April and has quickly established himself as a competitor.
