Three jockeys have been fined and banned from racing for a month after taking beers onto a commercial flight as they returned from a responsible drinking seminar.

Thoroughbred Racing South Australia's stewards yesterday found jockeys Garry Hoobin, Paul Marks and Sean Harrison guilty of prejudicing the sport.

The incident happened on a Regional Express flight from Adelaide to Mount Gambier.

The men were said to have taken 12 beers onto the one-hour flight and were drinking them, despite warnings from the flight attendant not to open them.

The Australian Federal Police were called to investigate the incident.

The jockeys had been in Adelaide for the day attending a racing industry-funded seminar on the responsible consumption of alcohol.

They have been fined $500 and received a year's ban on all Regional Express flights.

Marks is still under investigation from the Civil Aviation Authority for allegedly failing to put on his seat belt.
