Top Quality Fields set for the R4,895 million Stakes WSB Championships Season Finale

Monday 24 April 2023

The stage is set for a spectacular day of racing on Saturday 29 April as Johannesburg’s showstopper World Sports Betting (WSB) Championships Finale takes place at the Turffontein Racecourse with no less than seven red-hot Graded races.

The R4 895 000 Champions Day is the climax of what has been a thrilling 5-part The WSB Championships season, which now culminates with the best of the best doing battle at Turffontein on one of the biggest days on the South African horseracing calendar.

The WSB Championships Finale will be headlined by the R2 000 000 WSB Premier’s Champions Challenge over 2000m, with big guns Puerto Manzano, Nebraas, Aragosta, Red Saxon, Second Base, Rain in Holland, Billy Bowlegs, Litigation, MK’s Pride and Zeus all among those lining up in a massive showpiece race of the Johannesburg season.

Another major Grade 1 race on the day will be the R1 000 000 Jonsson Workwear ComputaForm Sprint over 1000m, which is packed with the country’s best speedsters including Master Archie, William Robertson, Isivunguvungu, Taikonaut, Sheela, Big Burn, Rollwiththepunches, Princess Calla and Gobsmacked all lined up to contest for honours.

“There have been so many great storylines during the World Sports Betting Championships Season,” said Fundi Sithebe, CEO of 4Racing.
“Piere Strydom rolling back the years with Lady of Power in the Gauteng Fillies Guineas and Rachel Venniker showing us the future of the sport is in good hands with her sensational win in the WSB Gauteng Guineas on Eye of the Prophet.
“Anfields Rocket, Bless My Stars, Son Of Raj, Trip Of Fortune and Desert Miracle are all fantastic runners who have had big wins during this WSB Championships season and now we’ve saved the best for last. We are excited for Champions Day, looking at the quality fields we have lined up from start to finish, there is no doubt this will be a memorable showcase of top-class horse racing and we urge punters to come to Turffontein in their numbers.”

Warren Tannous, CEO of World Sports Betting, is equally excited about the WSB Championships Season Finale.

“We would like to thank our partner, 4Racing, as well as our valued clients and racegoers for their support and enthusiasm throughout a spectacular series of racing,” said Tannous.
“Our vision is to welcome a new life into the sport of racing, creating awareness, an element of fun and lifestyle too. We look forward to a long and prosperous partnership with 4Racing and what lies ahead.
“It is befitting that the season concludes with the much-anticipated The World Sports Betting Championships’ Finale - Champions Day, a major highlight of what’s been a great addition to the country’s horse racing calendar.”

Racegoers can expect a vibrant line-up of music acts including popular singer-songwriter and producer Lee Cole, 5FM’s Austin Cassim, bass brothers Ebb and Mayo and popular Hip Hop and R&B DJ Marco da Costa.

Entrance to Turffontein Racecourse is absolutely free for Champions Day and gates will open from 10am.

All the action from Champions Day will be broadcast live on Racing 240, DSTV Channel 240. SABC 3 will also show the exhilaration of the main race at 15:00.

There are lots of green Formgrids grids to be seen in the Computaform Sprint. Sadly, the same can’t be said for the Champions Challenge.

Hard to believe the older and quality horses from around the country don't target this race, must be better than prepping in KZN and then finishing 9th in the Durban July

I’ve always believed the Computaform Sprint should be Joburg’s showpiece. Have a strategy different to the Cape and KZN. The race is a sprint which could mitigate all the naysayers’ comments about the altitude, blah blah. Reverse the purses between this and the Challenge. Make it a R5bar race.

Looks like SA has moved away from breeding sprinters, this year's field is poor and I can't really think of many to make it better

Not sure I agree - I think both Master Archie and Princess Calla are very good - throw in the likes of Sheela and imo we have a very good field

The Champions Challenge imo is another story - lots of 'probably past their best' - while the younger brigade is mainly represented by Billy Bowlegs - who for me is 'capable' at best; I do think Puerto Manzano has been prepared specifically for this race and should take some beating - don't think he will go on to KZN though :unsure:
