Ashwin and Rene Reynolds, the owners of Kommetdieding, made headlines after the win. The family from Cape Town could not believe that they were now part of SA history.
As a child, Gavin fell in love with horses. However, he never knew it would award him a career as one of the best Jockeys in SA! The stuff of childhood dreams!
