Francois Herholdt, the experienced South African Jockey, is off Busan Korea on a four month stint. The news of his departure broke a few weeks ago but the likeable Herholdt took to social media to announced his move and thank his supporters in South Africa.

"Time to spread my wings again... I have been Blessed with a 4 month contract to ride in Busan. It’s been a tough year back home in SA since coming back from Saudi so when this opportunity came by I grabbed it with both hands. Thank you to everybody back home in Zimbabwe, Johannesburg, Cape Town and Kimberley for all the support in the year I was home. I am hoping and praying for a successful time in Korea. “With God all things are possible” thank you to everybody involved who helped and assisted me in making this possible. I hope to make SA and my family proud..."
