This is good news after losing such a iconic brand as J&B

Well done to Rob Scott and the team at Racing for finding such a great sponsor

Great sponsor. Wish they could have some balls on their half online bookmaking site called Sunbet. What a piss poor system. First load of junk miles backwards.

Well done to The Sun Int. group for coming back to race sponsorship.While J & B was a committed sponsor for almost 4 decades, it is anticipated that the Sun Int. will be hoping to exceed this length of period and are here to " stay ". :whistle:

With the race day worth R20 bar , maybe the Invest Cape Derby is now coming in line with the Epson Derby in terms of stake monies? :silly:

....... :lol:

Remember the last time Dave was in CT and went up the mountain in the Cable car? Best he give it a miss this time as there was talk of the Cableway staff embarking on a strike , about a 100 workers are on strike for better wages currently and to be honest it would make matters a lot worse if Dave was seen in Tafelberg Rd. :lol:
