RACING FOR 12 MILLION RANDS !!!!! SERIES.

Below I have highlighted  12  x BIIG players involved in  our S.A. Horseracing.-   who can easily part with 1, Million Rands. !

I propose an  12 or 13  MILLION RANDS SERIES   -   where each one of the members puts INTO THE KITTY   1,000,000 Rands.

Most of the below now have their own STABLE JOCKEY.......   for most of the rides this stable jock should only ride for his / her main stable.

I propose   12 x races in ALL......   3  at each centre -   JHB, DUR, CPT - P.E......  NOT  TOP DIVISION HORSES,  maybe  B & C division, even
2.y.o. as well......  Points  for   ALL.......Winner ......   going right down to LAST PLACE.  Maybe this can be over 6 - 8 weeks.  Nearly ALL BELOW  have horses
spread around the country......  Normal  race stakes to apply for each race, Under NHRA    control....  but NO OUTSIDE horses to be entered.......  but winner of the series could possible be
1st  6 mil,  2nd  3 mil, 3rd 1 mil   4th 0,5 Mil......   something like this.

Gaynor Rupert   - Aldo  Domey   ??
Sue Viljoen       -   Muzi  Yeni    ???
M Shirtliff           -    Bling Khumalo   ??
Khaya Stables    -   Zackey
Ridgemont          ??
ASSM Racing   -   Striker  Stry.
Hollywood   -      R Fourie    ??
Greg Bortz    -     JP van der m.
Sabine Plattner     -  C.  Orffer   ??
Laurence Wernars      Gav Lerena
Nick Jonnson  -  Rachael V
Wilgerbosdrift / Mauritz.

Mary Liley.....  unlucky Looser.....   she ONLY races in Natal with  Tony

bookies   CAN LET US PUNT  OVER THE SERIES   -     ON WINNING OWNER.......  PLUS    1st  3 places   (  as a normal race is with  8 runners or more !!

You have certainly moved the goal post from the R100 punters competition 😉 

Good luck 👍 

plenty of views Dave...but NO ONE prepared to say if this is a good  or IDIOTIC   idea.

Would luv to know how many of the OWNERS would be prepared to put up the  $$$   an anonymous  survey would be greeat !!
