Anyone who spends time in racing will become a graduate of the School of Hard Knocks. That is true on whatever level you are involved – be it punter, groom, trainer, jockey or owner. But, one thing that the industry teaches you is to be resilient, writes Gary Lemke for GG Gaming.

The latest nominations for the Jo'burg Summer Cup

Punters and stake holders were left disappointed on Wednesday, 6 October, when the meeting was abandoned due to a protest following the first race.

In his last 30 runs, Keagan De Melo has earned 5 wins and was unplaced only 4 times.

Aldo Domeyer has very healthy stats, with his last 30 races showing 8 wins, 5 seconds and only 4 unplaced.

Whenever racing people gather the conversation will inevitably land on the jockey and his perceived ability. However the saying goes that "stats don't lie."

We all know that the jockey, that the trainer has engaged to ride his horse, will play a vital part in the final outcome and influence the selection a punter makes when placing his bet.

Please note that the Turffontein meeting has been moved to Sunday, 3 October after the heavy rains.

Although the Cape season doesn’t “officially” start until we get back to Kenilworth, this past week out at Durbanville has given us an exciting taste of what lies ahead, writes Gary Lemke for GG Gaming.

KATAK last week became the latest example of how the odds are stacked against South African racehorses if they are to campaign overseas, writes Gary Lemke for GG Gaming.

When I first saw that South African jockey JP van der Merwe had been suspended from riding for 12 months by Singapore racing authorities, a couple of thoughts ran through the mind, writes Gary Lemke for GG Gaming.

Betting pools for Race 1 at Hollywoodbets Scottsville on 5 September 2021 failed to close in a time, resulting in bets being taken after the race was run. Single-race bets were refunded, but the field was allowed to apply in multi-race bets.

In a statement released on 10 September, TAB apologized to those who had winning bets on the race and conceded that refunding the bets was a disappointing outcome. However, that was the most practical solution in the circumstances.

Spring has (nearly) sprung and for punters around the country there is a huge sigh of relief, writes Gary Lemke for GG Gaming.

Hollywoodbets Greyville polytrack has long been believed to be biased towards the outside rail.

Is this still true?

On a day when a new generation of champions will take their next step to glory, the news that treble SA Horse Of The Year POCKET POWER passed away quietly in his paddock at Hemel ’n Aarde on Saturday morning, will be a sad way to end the season for many racing fans.
