Red letter day for Van Zyl
The Mercury
|June 17, 2025
ARETH VAN ZYL took a major step forward to defending his KZN ‘Trainer's Championship title winning the first four races and adding another two later in the day at Hollywoodbets Scottsville yesterday.
-
Last season he scraped home one winner ahead of Alyson Wright but although Wright has been chasing hard to turn the tables this season, yesterday’s results could have put paid to her chances of knocking Van Zyl off of his perch.
Van Zyl was three winner’s ahead going into yesterday’s meeting but his six-timer, four in the first and two in the last on the Hollywoodbets Scottsville card, may well have seen him uncatchable leading into the final two months of the season nine winners ahead.
