A general view of horse racing at Turffontein Racecourse over the short duration of the 2019/2020 season thus far.

Horse racing will resume as soon as the respective boards involved in the sport set new dates after the government’s decision on the Covid-19 lockdown.

A task team consisting of Phumelela, Gold Circle, Kenilworth Racing, Thoroughbred Horseracing Trust and National Horseracing Authority (NHA) will continue to meet on a regular basis and will provide updates as and when deemed appropriate.
