R260 million cash injection from Durban July
NOVICE "punters" are better off going with their lucky number or a name of the horse they fancy when making their foray into the world of horse betting at this year's Vodacom Durban July Race, said Neil Pretorius, the National Retail manager of Betting World.
“The more experienced people will know their horse and the trainer and would have followed them very closely, but those just starting will find it more difficult to pick their horses,” he said on Thursday.
Tens of thousands of racing fans and socialites are expected in Durban for the 121st running of the Vodacom Durban July. The regional economy is set to enjoy a R260 million injection directly from the race day
