The Thoroughbred Horseracing Trust

this is what i have found from racing sa fact book 2009

The Thoroughbred Horseracing Trust (The Racing Trust) is an independent, non-aligned and transparent organisation
created in 1988 by The Racing Association and the National
Sports Council (now the South African Sports Confederation
& Olympic Committee). The principal object of the Trust is to
promote the interests of all persons interested in, and affected
by, the sport in South Africa, with a view to the long term viability
of the sport. It is particularly concerned with transformation
and is charged with initiating, supporting and encouraging the
participation of persons who have been historically disadvantaged
and discriminated against. The Racing Trust also provides
supplementary stakes for horse racing events.
The Racing Trust currently totally supports the Gauteng Jockeys’
Academy, the Work Riders’ Training Programme and
race series and a new venture training young men to become
farriers. It also contributes towards supporting the Grooms’
School at Randjiesfontein, the Equine Research Centre at
Onderstepoort and the informal racing sectors of the Eastern
and Northern Capes.


who can add more about who runs this trust etc,,,

Mind the self-accolades!

It was 'yours truly' who introduced late Derrick Wiid to Mvuso Mbebe with the suggestion that the NSC should be brought on board to facilitate the GGBacceptance of corporatisation (once it was bulldozed by Jabu Molekethi; even though the sub-committe was against it!).

The MOU was drawn up by the Gauteng Gambling Board, incorporating the aspects mentioned. Also, that the NSC would now represent 'punters' and the grooms at the NHA (then Jockey Club) instead of delegates from Province (the GGB).

The issuing of shares, enriching a few black faces (who are never seen in public!) and subsequent listing and shooting down undertakings / agreements is now history!

That's why I persist; an investgation should commence with a perusal of the source / primary documents relating to corporatisation.
