Cape Racing – The Future Is In Our Hands

Cape Racing is a little like Cape weather: as the old joke goes, ‘if you don’t like it, just wait a few minutes’ and it seems we’re on the cusp of another seismic swing.

Although my horses are safely retired and I no longer have a dog in the fight so to speak, I still consider myself a stakeholder in local racing. As such, I decided to attend the recent meetings discussing the future of Kenilworth Racing. Old habits and all that.

Robyn Louw writes that having followed the previous round (which included the Gold Circle divorce and the Cape hitching its wagon to Phumelela), it is amusing to see many of the same faces, although the roles have shuffled a bit. But some things are so old, they’re new again - READ THE FULL ARTICLE HERE

I wonder how much actual tote turnover comes from punters based in the Cape - I have only anecdotal experience from years past where I found the totes quite empty but I was not in the major Metro areas ....

Found them both excellent articles but scary stuff what happens with the people we trust to run racing.

Extremely complicated and concerning the way we are currently heading 🙃

I am sure we have a wonderful product to promote but the fees vs stakes are a killer and the overall leadership is not giving me much confidence.

Good Punting
