Leading apprentice Lyle Hewitson was on 99 winners in the professional ranks going into today’s meeting at the Vaal.
If he clinches the milestone 100th it will likely be in record breaking time.
He only had his first professional ride eight months ago on March 6.
He regards Persian Approval in race 5 and Water Lily Lake in race 2 as his best rides today.
Regarding Water Lily Lake he said, “We only have the stable companion (Rebel To The Fore) to beat.”
