SA RACING FACTBOOK 2008/2009
Welcome Note
W
elcome to the 2009 edition of the South
African Racing Fact Book.
The horseracing industry has, along with almost every other sector of the South African
economy, felt the effects of the global economic
meltdown that began at the onset of the racing
season under review and whilst we in South Africa have not been as badly affected as some
racing jurisdictions we have nevertheless felt
the impact of this throughout every sector of the industry.
In the auction ring a decade of ever increasing sale prices came to an end as
our Premier Sale recorded a downturn of 24% with other sales recording drops
of between 9-41%. The only sales to perform well were those that were held
at the beginning of the 2008/9 racing year which was immediately prior to the
start of the recession.
Totalisator turnovers were marginally down on the previous year but the lack
of growth has meant that, with the exception of our graded and listed race
programme, stakes have not managed to keep pace with ever rising costs
and this is a major source of concern for the industry which has had to tighten
its belt and become more innovative in an effort to attract a greater share of
the gambling rand.
On a positive note, it has brought the two Racing Operators together in a national effort to rationalise certain areas of our business which will produce cost
savings and generate additional revenues both of which will have ongoing
benefits for all stakeholders.
Internationally, South Africa can truly be regarded as a global player as our
horses, trainers and jockeys continue to fly the South African flag with increasing success. Indeed it is rare not to find a South African presence at any of the
numerous International Racing carnivals, a statement borne out in the 2009
Melbourne Cup where Mourilyan ran an outstanding race to finish third in the
race “that stops a nation”. Trained by Herman Brown and ridden by former
South African-based jockey Glynn Schofield, it is ongoing proof of the talent
that South Africa produces in all sectors of the industry we are all passionate
about.
I trust that you will find the information contained in this publication to be both
interesting and informative and once again my thanks to all those who have
assisted with the process.

South African
Racecourses
S
outh Africa currently has ten Racecourses which, as
shown on the map, are located throughout the country
at all the major centres.
Of the ten Racecourses, eight have grass surfaces, one has
both grass and sand and one is solely a sand surface (Flamingo Park). There are also floodlights installed at the Greyville
track where night meetings take place approximately 24 times
annually and lights have recently been installed at Turffontein.
Race meetings are held daily in South Africa with a carded
programme of from eight to ten races and a typical week’s racing fixtures would look as follows;

Clairwood Racecourse
C
lairwood Racecourse is built on land that was originally a swamp and was opened on Tuesday, May 24,
1921. Known as the “Garden Course”, Clairwood is
situated approximately 10 km from the Durban city centre and
2 km from Durban International airport. The left-handed oval
track is a flat 2500 metres in circumference with one of the
easiest turns in the country. The run-in to the winning post is
600 metres. There is also a 1 200 metre straight, meeting the
bend at the 600 metre mark. Wide draws are of little consequence except in races over 1450 m, with a short run-in to the
home turn, and races over 2400 m where the runners jump
straight into the first bend.

Golf Club’s Championship course and is situated in

2200m
1200m
2400m
the heart of Durban. In 1996 it became the first track in
the country to install floodlights, enabling the course to stage
night racing. The track is an undulating 2 800 metre pear-
1000m
shape. There is a downhill slope from the 2 600 metre mark
then uphill from the 2 400 metre mark to the 1 800 metres.
Thereafter a gentle downward slope for about 800 metres is
followed by a testing uphill section from the 800 metre mark
FINISH
into a 500 metre home straight which is slightly uphill. Wide
3200m
draws are a factor in races over 1 400m to 1 600 m where the
start is situated on the turn.

Scottsville Racecourse
S
cottsville Racecourse is situated about 2,5km from the
1800m
1600m
1400m
Pietermaritzburg City Hall and 85 km from Durban. The
track is a right-handed oval and approximately 2 300
metres in circumference with a banked home turn into a divided 550 metre straight. A portable rail, similar to railway points
system, is used to guide the horses into the inside or outside
straights, both of which rise steeply up to the winning post.

FINISH
1200m
Scottsville also has a tricky 1 200 metre straight course which
is downhill from the start before rising steeply from the junction
to the finish.
Because of the cambered home turn, wide draws appear to be
of little consequence.
Scottsville is also a “Racino” course with the Golden Horse
Casino and hotel conveniently “attached” to the back of the
grandstand allowing both racing and casino patrons easy access to both facilities.

K
enilworth is a left-handed track and is unique amongst
South African racecourses in that it consists of three
1400m
1600m
OLD TRACK 2000m
1200m
1000m
separate tracks.
There is a new track with a circumference of 2800m and a run-
1800m
in of about 600m which is used primarily in summer, and an
old track with a circumference of 2700m and a run-in of about
450m which is normally used for winter racing. There is also a
FINISH
separate 1200m straight course which bisects the infield at a
diagonal, the three courses only coming together in the pull-up
FINISH
2800m
area. The new course particularly is one of the fairest in South
Africa and gives every horse a winning chance, but ability to
race handy is of greater importance on the old course. The
1200m straight is the stiffest in the country. A climb for the
first 200m and another rise over the final 200m make this a
real test of ability to stay 1200m and horses who go fast early
on almost invariably get caught wanting at the finish. Horses
who seem best over middle distances often do well in 1200m
races at Kenilworth, especially when the winter going is soft or
heavy. Low number draws are generally favoured in sprints,
but fields tend to split into two distinct groups when the going
is heavy and outside barriers then enjoy a slight advantage.
Draws are of little importance around the turn, especially on
the new course.
Durbanville Racecourse
A
left-handed course with a circumference of about
2200m, Durbanville has a run-in of about 600m and
1200m
1400m
1600m
no straight course.
Durbanville’s excellent drainage makes it an ideal winter racing
1000m
1800m
venue and that is when almost all meetings there take place.
With the home straight on a downward slope until just before
the finish and ability to at least race handy is important over al-
FINISH
most any distance, but the tracks reputation in this regard can
also lead to pacemakers going much too fast early on. Horses
3200m
2000m
who race from off the pace need a good turn of acceleration
to give of their best at this course. Low number draws are a
marked advantage over almost any distance and Durbanville
has a tendency to produce course specialists.
31
Turffontein Racecourse
T
urffontein is the Phumelela flagship course and con-
1800m
1600m
1200m
1400m
sists of the old “Standside” track and a new inside
track. The Standside course is a right-handed track
with a circumference of approximately 2700m, with a 1200m
1000m
straight course joining the round course at about the 800m
500m
mark. The Standside course is widely considered one of SA’s
FINISH
stiffest tracks because of a steady climb from about the 1200m
to the final turn. The straight course is flat, and the Turffontein
2200m
FINISH
2600m
3000m
1200m is probably one of the most undemanding in SA. The
draw appears to be of little significance in sprints, but low barriers are favoured in races run over 1400m and 1600m.
The new inside track shares a common back straight with the
Standside Track. All races run clockwise round a tight turn with
a run-in of slightly less than 500m. The track rises 10m from the
1400m to the 500m marks. Low-number draws favoured over
1000m and 1200m.
Nightracing was launced in November 2009.
Vaal Racecourse (grass)
2400m
2200m
2000m
A
right-handed course with a circumference of about
1800m
2900m, the Vaal consists of two 1000m straights connected by fairly sharp bends. The run-in of 1000m is
2800m
the longest in the country, and the Vaal also has South Africa’s
FINISH
1400m 1600m
only 1600m straight course. All races of up to a mile are run
down the straight. Generally, outside draws hold an advantage
on the straight course, especially when the going is soft, but
1000m
in the winter months the two extremes appear equally favour-
1200m
able and fields tend to split into two distinct groups on either
side of the course. Draws are of little significance in races run
around the turn.

A
right-handed course with a 1000m straight course,

with the 1000m start taking place at the top of the

straight. Races over 1200m start in the middle of the
bend, those over 1400m right at the entrance of the bend.
FINISH
Starting stalls for races over 1400m are positioned at an angle,
to compensate for wide draws. The sand track appears to put
800m
1000m
a premium on stamina. The sand track at the Vaal was inaugurated in August 2001.
32
Fairview Racecourse
A
right-handed course with a circumference of ap-
2000m
1800m
proximately 2700m and a run-in of 800m, Fairview
has a straight course of 1200m which joins the round
1600m
2200m
1400m
course at the 800m mark.
The straight course (and therefore the run-in) is mostly downhill, which means that most races are run at a good pace. High
2400m
FINISH
1000m 1100m 1200m
number draws hold a marked advantage in races run over the
straight course, but barriers seem of little significance in races
2700m 2800m
3600m
around the turn. Fairview tends to be a slow-draining course
and the going frequently remains soft or heavy for some time
after a wet spell.
Arlington Racecourse
A
sharp, undulating right-handed course with a cir-
2000m 1900m 1800m
1600m
1400m 3200m 1200m
cumference of approximately 2000m and a run-in of
600m.
There is a 1000m straight course which joins the round course
at about the 600m mark. The sharp uneven nature of the
course has made Arlington notorius as a fast track. The 1000m
straight course is mostly downhill. Barrier draws are of little
importance over most distances as there is a 400m stretch to
FINISH
800m

1000m

the first turn even when racing over 1400m. Races between
1800m and 2000m start from a chute extending from the back
straight. Arlington enjoys excellent drainage and the going is
good to firm almost all year round.

Training
Centres
T
he training of racehorses in South Africa is largely
centralised into training centres controlled by the two
racing operators, Gold Circle and Phumelela. There
are, however, a number of successful private setups around
the country.
In KwaZulu-Natal, operated by Gold Circle, the main training centre is at Summerveld about 36km from central Durban
at Shongweni and some 600 m above sea level. Over 1 100
horses are stabled here.
Ashburton Training Centre was established in 1984 and the
complex is situated 12 km outside of the KZN capital Pietermaritzburg where nearly 500 horses are stabled.
Clairwood Racecourse in Durban is also used as a training
centre and has a small resident population of horses whose
numbers swell during the important winter racing season when
visiting horses are stabled there.
In the Western Cape, also controlled by Gold Circle, the main
training centre is situated on part of the old Milnerton Racecourse on the West Coast where more than 1 000 horses are
stabled.
Phillipi, which houses about 300 horses, is situated on the
Cape Flats on the False Bay side of Table Mountain. Both centres boast access to the cold waters of the Atlantic Ocean.
In the regions controlled by Phumelela, the main training facilities on the Highveld are at Randtjiesfontein in Midrand near
Johannesburg, where the majority of the Gauteng-based trainers and horses are situated, and at The Vaal Racecourse in
the Free State.
There is also a smaller training community situated at Turffontein Racecourse in the centre of Johannesburg which also
houses the Phumelela headquarters.
In the Eastern Cape, also controlled by Phumelela, the main
training facilities are situated at Arlington Racecourse.
