Robyn Louw

Hey Tangles,

My grandparents weren't racing folk, but my mom was horsey and my parents made their way into racing via the Cape Hunt & Polo Club. My dad was an avid amateur jockey and developed such a passion for the industry that he went to work full time for Milnerton racecourse (I'm really giving my age away now!!).

We had a smallholding outside Malmesbury from which we ran a small spelling and breeding operation. Our biggest homebred successes were Jason's Rock (trained by Louie Naude) and Sweet Whisper (who was trained by Crunchie Cronje). She turned into quite a good broodmare and seems to have saved her best for last with her colt In A Rush.

I'm afraid I didn't know George Zellie - sorry !

Love it ..well done for staying in this difficult game and adding some extra class to it Robyn..its much appreciated by a lot of us..many of whom dont post here too.

Thanks Robyn,i remember Jasons Rock.Ilove reading your articles,keep up the spirit

Hearty congrats to Robyn Louw for the best article “How Full is Your Glass ?” I’ve read for a long time.

I love her style of writing and really think she is a huge new asset to our wonderful game of horseracing.

She is a breath of fresh air as such a passionate but relatively new-comer to the racing game.

I certainly do hope she is given the opportunity to keep writing so beautifully for a very long time in the Sporting Post. I certainly look forward to her articles.

Sincerely
