                                What Exactly To Do Next?

Try A Rear View Mirror

                               Plenty has been said and written about what 2018 has in
                               store on the dramatically changing face of the South African
                               horseracing landscape.
                               A watershed year was 2017. Come to think about it, so was every year before that.
                               One thing we can’t change is history. Love it or leave it, we are all entitled to an
                               opinion and the reality is that life goes on.

                               But the indisputable facts are there for all to see. Over 130
                               stakes winners from just six renewals of the Cape Premier
                               Yearling Sale suggest that this really is one sale that stacks
                               the odds in favour of finding a serious racehorse, that could
                               change your life forever.

                                  so clever. Nobody really knows                    Eyes are just four of 22 stakes winners from the 2015 renewal, while
