The prestigious Hollywoodbets Durban July is set to feature an intense battle among 18 top horses, with the favorite, STAR MAJOR, securing a prime barrier four position for the R10-million race.
REGULATION narrowly made it into the final field, edging out CHOISAANADA to compete. As a handicap race, the competition promises excitement for punters, with Regulation touted as a top pick due to various factors, including being trained by Justin Snaith and ridden by Zac Lloyd.
STAR MAJOR, with a captivating storyline and trained by James Crawford, is another top contender in the lineup. French jockey Mickaëlle Michel adds a unique element, potentially becoming the first woman to claim victory in the historic race.
Veteran trainer Mike de Kock, aiming for his sixth win, teams up with son Mathew for a shot at victory with ALADDIN'S LAMP, despite drawing an outside barrier.
