This race will be for two year olds over 1200m for a stake of R200 000. The race is open to all two year old horses country-wide whose credentials meet the critera of "*KZN-bred" as prescribed by the rules of the KZN Breeders Premium Scheme. Points earned will be back-dated to 1 January 2013.

Points for Maiden races will be awarded on a 4, 3, 2 basis for first, second and third. All other races, including Grade 1’s, will have points awarded from first to fifth on 8, 6, 4, 3, 1 basis.
Points will be awarded regardless of the distance of the races and it will be up to the connections of the horses as to which races they nominate for. The intention is to publish a points log on a fortnightly basis which will appear on kznbreeders.co.za.
