The Thrill of Racing

The day takes place against the backdrop of exhilarating racing, including the highly anticipated Gr 1 SplashOut Cape Derby run over a distance of 2000 meters. Gr 1 World Sports Betting Cape Town MET winner Eight On Eighteen is just one of many reasons to attend the SplashOut Cape Derby. As the final Gr 1 race of the season, it will feature a thrilling 9-race card. Some of the most prominent horses to have won the Cape Derby include Dynasty, Jet Master, Rabiya, and the recently retired Green With Envy in 2024.

The Cape Derby has long been a key indicator for the Hollywoodbets Durban July. Last year’s winner, Green With Envy, went on to be crowned South Africa’s Champion Three-Year-Old Colt, while Oriental Charm used this race as a stepping stone to his July victory.

Adding to the excitement, the Gr 2 Khaya Stables Diadem Stakes over 1200m promises to be a spectacle. Gimme A Prince delivered the standout performance of the season in the HKJC World Pool Cape Flying Championship on 25 January, and he is set to draw even more attention to what promises to be an unmissable day of racing.
