Zim racing a healthy option

Racing in Zim as an owner has become a very real option with stakes being paid in $US and very very competitive training costs...I have absolutely no connection to the Seb D'Aquino yard but being an unusual name he caught my eye and I followed his progress last season and have been super impressed with his results..obviously a punting stable they simply dont miss when they have a bet and often have taken on odds on shots and beaten them FINAL FLING and WHO DARES WINS are what really caught my interest..they both ran on the same day,both took on odds on favorites and were backed like the result was known and as it turned out it was...Chosir was another who was backed in a graduation plate and won then went on to win a R500k race, great return for a horse that was bought in Durban for just 20k and is 2 for 2 there..the list of his successes is a long one but if anyone is considering owning a horse and racing it in ZIM then Seb should be a natural choice, there is no doubt given the right support he will be the leading trainer there

How much do you get for a maiden win?

Maiden Juv +- R35k winners cheque It appears that all supporting races carry the same stake Maidens Novice Grads and MR races US$ 6,500 and the feature race on the day carries a stake of US$ 7,5K...how did MJ pull up today bud??

yip all my life i would love to send horses to race in a country which is so well led by that noble prize winning legend....

Been thinking the same thing pirates , wasn't that long that there was a tragedy up there

Hilt you race in SA bud when it comes to leaders we can hardly point fingers...thankfully both here and there they dont have a negative impact on horse racing..

Standing in the ring with your trainer, partner and jock plotting the race while your horse parades then watching your pride n joy go down to the start and finally shout them home and welcome them into the winners enclosure is priceless

Great country. Normal people live in fear of their government,army and police.

Lets support them

charity begin at home people. let zimbabweans support zimbabwe trainers, no? we have plenty trainers who struggle and need support right hear in south africa, why support some one from another country before your own? any body say i talk shit, go have a look at some yard at vaal, people are struggling

titch many would say our racing leaders are comparable to mugabe in his ways ....

I understand the racing people in Zim have done a fantastic job however how can we forget mad Bob and what he has done to that beautiful country?

When the Zim dollar is worth nothing and the nation
battles how can they pay USD ? How can you cash?
I would guess Bob will stick his finger in the pie if big money goes on offer and restrictions will be put in place.
