Justin Snaith-trained Note To Self, ridden by Richard Fourie, won the 130th running of the Hollywoodbets Durban July at Hollywoodbets Greyville in Durban on Saturday, edging Wish List into second place as King Pelles finished third.
The victory gave Snaith another major success in South African racing’s most prominent event and handed Fourie the win in a race-day carrying a record R10 million stake.
Billed as Africa’s richest horse race, the Durban July again drew large crowds, celebrities, political figures, fashion personalities and racing enthusiasts to Greyville for a day that combined elite racing with high-profile social and fashion events.
This year’s theme, “Country Allure”, brought cowboy-inspired and rural-elegance looks to the racecourse, with guests interpreting the theme through country fashion, equestrian styling and formal race-day wear.
