The World Sports Betting Grand Heritage Race Day is an event that is always awaited with high anticipation by all avid horse racing fans in the Vaal area. In this compact field of horsepower and jockey tactics, where up to 25 runners compete for the total prize of R500K in the main race 7, our stable will be represented by three spirited runners – Smorgasbord-Diego De Gouveia, Bon Vivant-Raymond Danielson, and Chyavana-Gavin Lerena. 

Given our trio’s recent performance and bespoke training, we look forward to a vigorous competition that bodes well with the vibe of the Highveld racing season. Chyavana, indeed, has been quite the hot prospect, earning a noteworthy praise for his exceptional performance last month. 

On 4th November 2023 at Turffontein Standside, Chyavana took hold of an impressive second place in Race 8, namely, BETWAY SUMMER CUP 25 NOVEMBER PINNACLE STAKES (1160m). This feat was achieved post a well-earned break and, therefore, merits a special mention. Even though he ran under sufferance and couldn’t procure a penalty under the race conditions.

Running at a disadvantage with weights, he still pulled off a phenomenal performance to finish a close 2nd behind William Robertson and in front of Mrs Browning who have both come out to win from that formline. This superb display is an undeniable testament to his potential, which he will have to carry into the upcoming Grand Heritage race on Saturday 9th December. 

Last year, Chyavana managed to hold the fifth position at the same event. However, after witnessing his soaring spirit and enhanced stamina, this year, we are hopeful of an even more commendable effort. Enthusiasm and excitement are running high as we gear up for the race day. 

With Smorgasbord and Bon Vivant also poised and primed, our stable is keenly looking forward to the much-anticipated World Sports Betting Grand Heritage race day. We’re looking forward to the challenge and are thrilled about the promise that lies ahead. 

In the second feature of the day the World Sports Betting Heritage Consolation, the spotlight falls on two determined contenders: Fast Love and Tsar Bomba. Both runners will be striving to give a good account of themselves on the track. As they navigate the course, the focus will be on their performance, tactics, and the relentless pursuit of a respectable finish.

On another note we would also like to take a moment to wish everyone the best of luck & enjoyment in their December Holidays.
