It really is an absolute pleasure to welcome @bortz_greg as our guest for a specially extended Weatherbys segment on the @nickluck Daily podcast. Greg speaks to Nick just two weeks after he landed Africa’s biggest race - the @Hollywoodbets Durban July - with his colt Oriental Charm (pic). There’s so much more to Greg’s involvement in South African 🇿🇦 racing though. He’s a man who, along with some key partners, has been central in turning around the fortunes of racing in the Cape within just a few short years. Greg chats to Nick about being bitten by the racing bug at an early age, his private equity career in the UK & States, a return to SA and renewing his love of horseracing. There’s plenty of ground covered including his partnership with @Hollywoodbets, the tie-up with @GoldCircleRSA, the part South African 🇿🇦 racing can play on the world stage and so much more.

Not every day someone gets acknowledged by a true legend of our times. The praise is most certainly not deserved - haven’t done anything yet - but hope to earn it in time!!! @garyplayer @caperacing1 – at Cape Town, South Africa

Exciting news. Glad to have this chance to contribute and give back to racing. Need to be patient and wait for all regulatory processes to be concluded. But the aim is clear - to elevate racing in the Cape and nationally. Can’t wait! sportingpost.co.za/featured/…
