The R500,000 World Sports Betting Grand Heritage (Non-Black Type) will be run at the Vaal on Saturday 21 December and there has been an entry of 61 runners for this popular race.
The success of the Grand Heritage is that it is restricted to horses with a net merit rating of 106 or below, which allows lower rated horses to race for a really good stake.
The event is run over the unusual distance of 1475m up the Vaal straight and tomorrow at the course we get an early look at some of those contenders as Race 6, a Middle Stakes over the Grand Heritage trip of 1475m.
It comprises a field of 14 runners and most of them have entries for the Grade Heritage. However, should one of them that has not yet been entered for that race produce an outstanding performance, there is still a chance to get in as there is a final supplementary stage on Friday after which the weights will be announced.
Declarations close at 11am on Thursday 12 December.
