Carl Hewitson

There were a few trainers in good form over the festive season. Kom Naidoo led the charge with six winners closely followed by Garth Puller on five with Mike Miller and Carl Hewitson tied on four. However, given the relative size of his string, being one of the smaller yards in Summerveld, Carl’s strike rate was far superior to any of his rivals with a 22% winning percentage and 44% of his runners in the money from just 18 runners. Also, a R1 winning bet on each of his runners will have yielded a R9 profit.

Carl Hewitson is Gold Circle’s Trainer of the Month for December.
