SP edition 2099 carried a personality profile of Masego ‘Maps’ Maponyane, one of the ambassadors for the new Racing, It’s A Rush initiative (copy here).
The profile generated a reader’s letter from punter and racing fan ‘Kingpin’ Philip Goldberg, posing a number of questions to Mr Maponyane (copy here).
On 28 November 2014 and again on 2 December, the Sporting Post forwarded Mr Goldberg’s questions to Maps and the Racing It’s A Rush team and invited them to engage and comment.
On Wednesday, 3 December 2014, we received the following response from Michael Varney, National Marketing Manager – Racing, It’s A Rush:-
“A decision has been taken not to engage further.”
Sorry Philip, we did try !
