Win big this weekend

- Dispatch Racing Editor

A feast of racing – with matching opportunit­ies to win big – is on the cards this weekend thanks to a bouquet of carryovers that will most definitely result in some massive TAB pools.

On Saturday, the Highveld season kicks off in earnest with the running of the Grade 2 Joburg Spring Challenge and the Grade 2 Joburg Spring F&M Challenge, both over 1450m on the Inside track at Turffontei­n.

On the same day, the Durbanvill­e Racecourse hosts its biggest meeting of the year when the Grade 3 Matchem

Stakes and Grade 3 Diana Stakes will be contested over 1400m.

On Sunday, the local action is from Greyville while internatio­nally France will come to a standstill for the running of the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe at ParisLongc­hamp.

All three the local race meetings will be spiced up with carryovers, so punters are advised to get their ComputaFor­m form guides timeously. These can be downloaded free of charge from tabonline.co.za.

The weekend carryovers are:

Turffontei­n 3 October
