4Racing Launches Juvenile “BSA Sales Races”

4Racing is thrilled to announce a series of exciting incentives for owners and trainers commencing at the 2025 Bloodstock South Africa (BSA) Cape Yearling Sale.

 

The sale will take place on 23rd February 2025 at the SARDA Centre in Constantia, Cape Town, and promises to create new ownership possibilities for those involved in or looking to get involved in the horse racing industry.

To support the growth of the horse population in the 4Racing regions, 4Racing will be offering owners a further incentive by way of a transport subsidy for all horses purchased at the 2025 BSA Cape Yearling Sale travelling to Johannesburg or Gqeberha.

To back up these owner and trainer incentives, 4Racing will be introducing two new “BSA Sales Races” to the juvenile programme in 2026 to be run over 1160m at 4Racing’s Turffontein racecourse. One race will be for two-year-old fillies only and the other an open two-year-old colts and fillies race. Subject to the finalisation of the 2026 fixtures, the date of these races will be confirmed.

These races will be open to any BSA graduate purchased from the following 2025 BSA sales:

- The BSA Cape Yearling Sale
- The BSA National Yearling Sale
- The BSA KZN Yearling Sale
- The BSA August 2 Year-Old Sale

Only the BSA “Added Stakes” programme qualifiers will be eligible to compete in these races.

In a further show of support, 4Racing will be funding the total stake of R400,000 per race. To make these races even more competitive and accessible, 4Racing will also subsidise transport costs for all out of town runners in these races.

These initiatives demonstrate 4Racing and BSA’s commitment to fostering owner growth, adding excitement to the juvenile race programme, and to enable trainers to grow their bloodstock and reward owners with new race opportunities.
