KZN BREEDERS AWARDS 2010
Megan RomeynFriday night saw the past racing season’s hard work being rewarded when the KwaZulu Natal Breeders honoured their own for racing excellence at the prestigious KZN Breeders Awards.
Pierre Jourdan, whose racing performances have enthralled the public during the past year, walked away with the laurels in the categories of Outstanding Three Year Colt and Horse Of The Year, while Salutation (by Requiem) garnered the Outstanding Stayer Female and Winning Leap (by Labeeb) grabbed the Outstanding Stayer Male award. Hear The Drums (who made it 34 wins on Friday in the Glendore Sprint), was honoured with the Individual Achievement Award. Garden Verse (dam of the illustrious Imbongi and Mahubo) was awarded Broodmare Of The Year and man-of-the-moment stallion, Way West, grabbed a deserved Stallion Prospect Of The Year award with super sire Kahal once again crowned Stallion Of The Year.
The highlight of the evening undoubtedly was when Summerhill Stud was once again named the Leading Breeder Of The Year.
