Draw from Dave

PHUMELELA MEDIA RELEASE
SUBJECT: Final field with draws for Emperors Palace Charity Mile
DATE: Wednesday 23 October 2019
RELEASED BY: Phumelela Gaming


There were mixed fortunes for the leading stables of Mike de Kock and Sean Tarry at the draw function for the R1-million Peermont Emperors Palace Charity Mile held at Emperors Palace on Wednesday.
The Grade 2 race over 1600m on the Standside track at Turffontein will be run on Saturday 2 November.
Both Tarry and De Kock have four runners in the main draw and while Tarry’s runners drew stalls No 7, 8, 9, and 11, De Kock’s runners had a spread from No 4 to the widest of all in the 16-horse field.
From the Tarry yard Zillzaal drew No 7, Tilbury Fort at No 8, Pilou at No 10 and In The Dance at No 11.
De Kock won’t be thrilled that Buffalo Bill Cody drew No 12 while Barahin, who tends to drop out at the start, landed No 4 draw. Cascapedia is at No 5 but Noble Secret will start from the outside of the field.
Bob Yearham, Chief Operations Officer for Emperors Palace, welcomed all the guests and eluded to the importance of the Charity Mile for their organization. “This is a day we look forward to because it is a foundation event on our calendar.”
The 16 selected charities were paired with their respective celebrities and then they drew for horses. The charities will share in R1 million which will be distributed according to where their horses finish.

The Peermont Emperors Palace Charity Mile
Meet the Beneficiaries

The countdown has begun for one of the most anticipated race meetings on the calendar - the Peermont Emperors Palace Charity Mile. With the hopes and dreams of 16 charities and celebrities riding on the results of the race, the finishing order of the entire field has never been of more importance for the connections waiting in the parade ring.
Turffontein Racecourse plays host to the Peermont Emperors Palace Charity Mile on the 2nd of November with a purse of R1 million being shared amongst the 16 competitors and donated to the charity with whom they’ve been paired.
With an emphasis on education, empowerment and upliftment, this race day seeks to provide positive social impact for those in need - including schools, community upliftment programmes and animal welfare organisations.
One of the beneficiaries, Welamlambo Primary School in Tembisa, were recently invited to visit Turffontein racecourse to get a first-hand view of the track on which the horse representing their charity will do battle against the balance of the field. Thomas Masango, Trust Manager for the Peermont Children’s Trust and Sipho Sibiya, Principal of Welamlambo Primary School, watched fondly as the children posed proudly with the Peermont Emperors Palace Charity Mile Trophy – hoping to repeat the picture perfect moment in just a few weeks’ time.
“We are so delighted to bring the kids to Turffontein, they’re very excited to be part of the Peermont Emperors Palace Charity Mile. We are very grateful for the sponsorship with Peermont as, not only have they donated books, but they have also enabled us to build and refurbish our playground for our Grade R’s,” says Sibiya.
Along with Welamlambo Primary School, the other official charities selected for this years’ race include:
1. Zimele Primary School
2. Thembimfundo Primary School
3. Animal Allies Rescue
4. Nageng Primary School
5. Tembisa Star Schools centre
6. Highveld Horse Care Unit
7. Vosloorus Star Schools centre
8. Springs Star Schools centre
9. National Horse Trust
10. Peermont Hotel School
11. Peermont Education Trust
12. Lesedi Scarce Skills Programme
13. Peermont Community Benefit Trust
14. Animal Anti-Cruelty League
15. Welamlambo Primary School: After School Care

The horses are also each paired with a celebrity, which makes for some friendly rivalry and competitive banter pre and post-race. Last years’ winning celebrity, Rhythm City and Isibaya Actor, Pallace Dladla, is back with the hopes of retaining the title.
Other celebrities for the 2019 edition of the race include, amongst others:
Hildegardt Whites – 7de Laan Actress
Kriya Gangiah – Jacaranda FM presenter
David Louw – Getroud met Rugby Actor
Relebogile Mabotja – Metro FM Presenter
Sdumo Mtshali - Rhythm City and Isibaya Actor
Kevin Lerena – World Champion Boxer
Nicole Bessick – Broken Vows Actress

Supersport Presenter, Neil Andrews (pictured), was present at the barrier draw which took place at Peermont Emperors Palace and will be hoping “Cascapedia” wins so that his charity Nageng Primary School can win the R150 000 first prize. Pictured with him is Peermont Human Resources Executive, Fihliwe Molefe (back middle) of Bryanston and the Palace of Dreams’ dancers, Tania Knoop (back left) of Fourways and Carmen Olympia (back right) of Benoni who assisted with the draw.

Whilst the Peermont Emperors Palace Charity Mile takes place on the same day as the Rugby World Cup final, provision has been made to ensure you can enjoy the best of both, including great specials from the beer fest area.
It’s a race day with a purpose so head down to Turffontein on the 2nd of November and join the jockeys, celebrities and charities in making a difference through the sport of Kings.
