Durbanville on Saturday

11 years 9 months ago

Hi All; can anybody please give me an update on the rainfall in Durbanville.

I know that sometimes it does not rain as heavily in Durbanville as the other areas, and I was thinking of coming through to the course on Saturday.

Just thought I would ask the guys who live close to the course for their opinion on whether they think the metting will go ahead or not...

Many Tks

World first (only in Africa though), when they sell off Milnerton, why not invest the money in retractable roofs for both the Western Cape courses. They will not lose any more meetings to adverse weather. Wimbledon and one of the Aussie stadiums both have retractable roofs, a few which spring to mind - problem solved.

Guessing has never been widely acclaimed as a good gambling strategy.

There's a cheaper option, replace the alumites with flippers and the horse that crosses the line last with all four flippers on, is declared the winner, a kind of donkey handicap:D
