The 130th Durban July couldnt possibly be more special than it already is, with a record-breaking R10 million prize pool and the fashionable Country Allure theme. Or perhaps it could? Because this year, the race feels more open than usual. The three co-favourites, See It Again, Eight on Eighteen, and Note to Self, are all evenly rated ahead of the event, with each carrying matching 6/1 odds. And to make things even more interesting, its the first time in years this has happened.
As a prominent South African horse-racing ambassador at 10bet , Adam Marcus has some interesting takes. Hes been following the build-up closely, and the fans are curious to hear his expert take on the exciting pre-race situation.
