Gabriell Pieterse, a 2nd year apprentice at the South African Jockey Academy, rode his 1st winner as an apprentice jockey in Race 3 at the Hollywoodbets Greyville Racecourse on Wednesday 30 October, aboard No. 8 "SPRING BREEZE" trained by Nathan Kotzen.

This was the young Apprentice’s 33rd ride and one he will never forget. Gabriell has been in decent form recently riding a number of good places in past few weeks. Gabriell and his family currently reside in Lusaka, Zambia and his Mom, Dad and younger sister, who never miss a race on Tellytrack, will be delighted with this victory!
