The annual running of the Cape Racing And Breeding Awards was held on 7 August 2015 and hosted at the splendid Lanzerac Estate in Stellenbosch. The event was a Racing Association and Cape Breeders Club collaboration.
Cheveley took home the award for Champion Middle Distance Horse of the Year (Legislate). Legislate was also nominated for “Champion Older Male”, but the award went to Captain Of All. Well done to everyone involved!
