Saftote have confirmed that they will be looking into a ‘strange’ Kenilworth dividend from Saturday afternoon’s meeting.

With the top swinger paying R53 and the trifecta delivering R3598, it was odd to see the quartet pay ‘just’ R5801-90, particularly with the unfancied Magical Bet, running into fourth.
‘They have left a zero off the end of the payout amount’, suggested one punter.
Phumelela’s Sports Betting Executive Vee Moodley confirmed shortly after our enquiry that the matter will be looked into.
