Bob let me say this

Everyone basically wants to live in the Western Cape and it is stunning when weather is good but in general the weather can be shitty at times.

Pretoria has the best climate .

Also the weather in Eastern Cape has also been shocking and not a good track

Turffontien is in a horrible area

Any other input and thoughts appreciated.

Turfontein race course should be in the North of JHB.Will definetely pull bigger crowds.

Move the whole show to Borrowdale. Best course on the continent. Horses that race there wont ever want to come back here..lol
