What is Durban July without the outfits – Pics #VDJ2020

It will be one of the most momentous Vodacom Durban July’s in the race’s long history, not only in terms of the lack of spectators but also in terms of the peculiarity of the runners on the track.

As usual, 18 brilliant horses will gallop down the Greyville track in pursuit of the biggest gong in South African horse racing – but, unlike in the previous 123 years, it will be eerily quiet.

The coronavirus pandemic means Saturday’s July will be contested behind closed doors – and almost a month later than originally planned.
