WELCOME TO

JANSE VAN VUUREN RACING

STABLE BACKGROUND

Janse van Vuuren, 42 years young, has had his training licence for over a decade and has been among the top dozen conditioners in the country in recent years, being unafraid to travel around the country in search of opportunities for his horses.
 
Straight out of school, Vereeniging-born Janse van Vuuren started work as a lowly water bucket carrier for Vaal trainer Mike Riley, later moving to the yard of the maestro Geoff Woodruff – who he credits with teaching him an enormous amount about racing.
 
Among the horses he learnt the ropes with were superstars Jet Master, El Picha and Yard-Arm.
