Phumelela is delighted to announce that World Sports Betting (WSB) have generously stepped in at late notice to sponsor the Gauteng Summer Cup over 2000m at Turffontein on Saturday 28 November.

Phumelela horseracing executive Patrick Davis expressed his sincere gratitude to World Sports Betting for their generous support during extremely challenging times for virtually all businesses.

Ryno du Plessis, marketing manager of World Sports Betting said “We are delighted and honoured to be sponsoring the World Sports Betting Gauteng Summer Cup, as well as the supporting races on this important day.

“I think this underlines how close horseracing is to our hearts. We felt it was important for World Sports Betting to increase its support for the racing industry during these difficult times.”

I agree,
Ran a cracker.
Must be a contender if Summer Pudding fluffs her lines.
