The KZN Jockeys and Trainers Challenge will be hotly contested in tomorrow’s KZN Breeders Race Day, and the prizegiving will be taking place after Race 9.
Warren Lenferna and Kevin Shea will keep everyone abreast of the table throughout the day as the results roll in.
The points are granted on the basis of 8 points for a win; 6 for second; 4 for third and two points for fourth.
The leading trainer at the end of the period will receive a R30 000 voucher to be used towards the purchase of any KZN-bred yearling at the 2018 KZN Yearling Sale, with the runner-up receiving a R15 000 voucher and the third placed trainer a R5 000 voucher.
Jockeys will compete for a cash prize pool of R50 000, split amongst the top three riders in the same ratio as the trainers.
