An exciting ten-race, five-feature programme is scheduled for Hollywoodbets Greyville on the turf track with the Hollywoodbets Gr1 Gold Challenge all the buzz today.
Today’s Hollywoodbets Punters’ Challenge is upping the ante with a guaranteed R125 000 to be split among the top 50 on the leaderboard, as well as an estimated jackpot of R2 million for the player/s who can find all the winners!
In another variation on the Hollywoodbets Punters’ Challenge, wagering a minimum of R50 on the programmatically generated betslip will multiply your potential leaderboard winnings by a factor of 5!
Mike and Mathew de Kock send out Dave The King in the Hollywoodbets Gr1 Gold Challenge.
He was super-impressive when winning his comeback effort over 1500m at Hollywoodbets Scottsville.
He set the pace, found another kick and won with ease. The son of Global View won this race last year.
He jumps from a good draw of two and should take a power of beating with Callan Murray retaining the ride.

Oxalis Gold from the Mike and Mathew de Kock stable takes her place in the HKJC Gr2 World Pool Stakes.
She is better than her last start in the WSB Gr2 Fillies Guineas. She was reported to be cut into on her right fore that day.
The daughter of Gold Standard was an impressive winner over this course and distance, in the Gr3 Byerley Turk, in her penultimate run.
She is at her best over this distance and with a bit of luck in running, she may be the one to beat.
