To the Cape Breeders Committee and Members, a very sincere thanks. The announcement at the Awards Evening of a Service Achievement Award was a wonderful surprise to Joy and I and we felt very honoured and humbled to be recognised in this manner.
I have been very fortunate, after so many years in racing in the Western Cape, to have such great support from all in racing, especially our Cape Breeders.
The charities that we support have been able to achieve so much over so many years. This has all been as a result of the contributions by so many Cape Breeders, and the participation by owners, trainers, jockeys and racing administrators.
The generosity of the people in the Racing/Breeding Industry is unbelievable. It is so nice to be a part of the fellowship of this Industry.
Since I first started “Cocktails & Racing” I have a lot of people to thank when it comes to the success of our charity evening for the work on the night.
A special mention of Jeanette,who is an exceptionally hard worker, and who has been with me at the WPOTA for 19 of the 21 years, her husband Paul and daughter Hayley and most importantly Joy and my family who have encouraged me to continue for so many years.
