Dave is King at Cape Breeders Awards

The Gary Player Stud-bred Global View gelding Dave The King was crowned Horse Of The Year at the Cape Breeders Club’s 2023/24 season awards held at Kenilworth last Saturday.

Owned by Messrs Lindsay Ralphs, Gary Player and Larry Nestadt, and trained by Mike De Kock, the reigning SA Horse Of The Year Dave The King was the only horse through the course of last season to pick up victories in two Super Grade 1 events.

Dave The King was also awarded Champion Miler.

Mike congratulated the owners and said: “Dave The King is coming through his test and rehab period very well. He will be aimed at the KZN Champions Season.”
