Eskom's troubles may spill over to Greyville on Saturday just when SA's most famous race is to be run

It is feared that load-shedding could throw a spanner in the works of wagering on the R5m Hollywoodbets Durban July on Saturday.Last Saturday there were power cuts from 2pm to 4pm. For racing fans watching channel 240, this meant they missed feature races being run at Kenilworth. The off-time for the July is 4pm.

The tote has experienced problems in previous years, but this was down to handling a large volume of bets. “Entrance tickets at R230 are on sale at all Computicket outlets. Racegoers can look forward to a great day with a mixture of high-quality thoroughbred horseracing, exciting fashion and an incredible sporting and social experience.

Some pundits thought the best gallop of the morning was that of the 2021 winner Kommetdieding. Now a 12-1 chance in ante-post betting, the four-year-old has to shrug off two defeats on the highveld which shocked his loyal band of supporters.
