The L’Ormarins King’s Plate is one of Cape Town’s most prestigious racing events and will be run at the newly renovated Hollywoodbets Kenilworth Racecourse on Saturday, 6 January 2024 - just a few days away!
The L’Ormarins King’s Plate dates back to 1861 and holds a special place in equestrian history as South Africa’s oldest horse race event in Cape Town.
The race was originally established in honour of Queen Victoria and continues to be held in honour of the British monarch. Last year, following a run of 19 years as the L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate, the event was renamed the L’Ormarins King’s Plate after the accession of King Charles III.
