A new three-race event will be launched at Turffontein on Sunday with the running of the Highveld Winter Series for three-year-olds, the races concerned being run over 1400m, 1600m and 1800m.

There is a lot at stake for the connections as over and above the normal stake money on offer, there will be a R500,000 bonus for any runner who can win all three legs.

Leg 1, the Listed Secretariat Stakes, will be run on Sunday over 1400m, with Leg 2, the Egoli Mile (Non-Black Type) over 1600m on Sunday 8 June. The final race will be the Grade 3 Sea Cottage Stakes over 1800m and that take place on Sunday 6 July.

All three legs will be run at Turffontein.

The bonus will be shared proportionately and 10% will be paid to winning trainer, 10% to the winning jockey and 1% to the winning groom. If the trainer, jockey or groom changes across the series, the bonus will be shared proportionately.

There will be no consolation bonus paid in this series.
