A flutter on the Durban July: R15m pools and payouts for six places via TheCitizen_News
Rainbow Bridge and Belgarion have been neck-and-neck at the top of the bookmakers’ betting boards in the week since the final field for Saturday’s Vodacom Durban July was announced. The two horses have shared and swapped favouritism at around the 4-1 mark – with punters diving in whenever odds on one of them eases slightly. A flood of money has also come for Soqrat, who shortened from an early call of 14-1 to 10-1, before easing to 12s on Tuesday 21 July.
A flood of money has also come for Soqrat, who shortened from an early call of 14-1 to 10-1, before easing to 12s on Tuesday 21 July. Another attracting attention is Bunker Hunt, who is in from 10-1 to 8-1. Good news for the small punter is that the tote will pay out six places on the July – meaning the top third of 18 runners will deliver a “return on investment”.
On the panel are former champion trainers Justin Snaith, who fields five July runners including Belgarion and Do It Again, and Mike de Kock, who saddles Soqrat.
