ISHWARLALL JAYANARAYAN

The Gold Circle Owner Award for the month has been bestowed ion Ishwarlall Jayanarayan.

Described by his family as “a man with a heart of gold who deserves all the success that comes his way”, Ishwarlall’s love of racing has been a lifelong journey from an avid punter in his early years to becoming a passionate thoroughbred owner with members of his extended family.

With his nephews Sanjeeth and Sanjeev Ramsewak, Ishwarlall syndicated his first horse with the Wendy Whitehead stable which has now grown to partnerships in eight horses which he races from the Whitehead and Mike Miller yards in KwaZulu-Natal and with Duncan McKenzie in Port Elizabeth.

His passion for racing has spread to his whole family and has become a social event shared with his three sons Vishal, Sudhir and Ashvir and his nephews that have enjoyed many entertaining and exciting days at the races.

Ishwarlall has enjoyed about 10 winners to date including with his runners Netanya and Bound By Duty during the month, the latter having followed up with another victory early in December.

Well done Ishwarlall
