We have been advised of the passing of John Yeoman, aged 90.
Mr Yeoman joined horseracing on the Highveld in 1967 and he worked as the starter in the region for 35 years.
“Mr Yeoman was a gentleman, soft-spoken and mild-mannered, a man all of us looked up to because he was so good at his job,” said Mike de Kock.
We extend our condolences to the Yeoman family.
