Remember Horse Chestnut? The world lost their collective faces when that guy won South Africa’s Triple Crown in 1999. Winning the Triple Crown is a hell of a big deal, and a horse named Louis The King has two out of three events in the bag. Guess what? The last of the three legs is happening in four days.
Louis the King is poised to become just the second horse ever to win South Africa’s Triple Crown, earning him a cool R2 million bonus, and elevating him to legendary status.
The South Africa Derby runs on 26 April 2014 – that’s the race the Louis The King needs to win to nab the first Triple Crown in 15 years.
From humble beginnings (his owner purchased him as a yearling for only R55 000) Louis the King has already earned R2 million in his short career, and stands to net his owner another R1 million plus a R2 million bonus if he wins this single race on 26 April.
The third leg of the SASCOC Triple Crown – the South Africa Derby – takes place at Turffontein Racecourse on 26 April 2014, and yes, you would be a fool to miss what is likely going to be a stunning moment in history.
