2000 July winner El Picha
Just a reminder that racing fans have a chance to see the stars in action at the annual Vodacom Durban July gallops at Greyville from 07h00 on Thursday morning, June 25.
A condition or entry for South Africa’s premier horserace is participation in the July Gallops where the big race contenders will gallop on their own or with a companion for the public to view their action and state of well-being.
The gallops will be timed and a commentary given of each performance with the performance times broadcast on course.
After the gallops a discussion panel will be held at the course featuring prominent racing personalities and to counter the early morning chill buns and hot coffee will be served free of charge for those attending.
The gallops will be televised live on Tellytrack DSTV 239 from 7am.
Tellina, Legal Eagle and French Navy will not be on course, but pre-recorded gallops will be shown.
For those wishing to watch the gallops in more comfort, a special breakfast at R65 per head will be available in the Durban View Room on the morning.
