A new generation Strydom takes to the track at Fairview this afternoon when young workrider Kyle Strydom, nephew of multiple champion Piere ‘Striker’ Strydom, partners Maid So Far for his Dad Jacques in the first race at 12h10.
Kyle, whose Uncle Piere Strydom is one of the greatest jockeys ever produced in South Africa, also has his Grandfather Hekkie shouting him home. Hekkie was a former jockey turned trainer.
Kyle Strydom – rides Maid So Far in the first
Maid So Far has shown little in three starts so it is a no pressure ride. But it is good to see the family’s next generation in racing.
