Top showjumpers compete in 2013 Galencia Property South African Derby

Cheng Cheng, CEO of Galencia Property Developments, said: "Equestrian sport has evolved to be more than just a noble event, but rather a symbol of aristocratic demeanour that is represented by ideals of fair competition. It has become the epitome of fashionable sport and an emblem of a high-end brand logo. Attributable to our efforts and experiences, Galencia Property always strives to globally develop the best value property with the team spirit of optimism, diligence and professionalism to deliver an elegant and dependable product. We, as the official sponsor of the Galencia Property South African Derby, share the same values that are symbolised by this gallant sport and hope to encourage a wider range of people to embrace it and subsequently uphold the noble sportsmanship."

Food, wine, entertainment and sport

Entrance is free from Wednesday to Friday for the preliminary rounds and qualifiers, but the real action takes place at the weekend when families and friends descend on the grounds to take in the food, wine, entertainment and sport, with Sunday remaining the pinnacle.

The theme for this year is "Gatsby Glitz" with plenty of fashion, good food and fair. Food stalls are available throughout week and other entertainment over the weekend includes a children's area, beer garden and shopping village and a VIP area for members in the newly renovated KEP Club House. The VIP Marquee tent for 600 guests is also a great cause for excitement. Great food and wine will be the order of the day. The Famous SA Derby after party will also be hosted in the marquees with top-class acts, such Pascal & Pearce and DJ Fresh, entertaining the bold and the brave whose day doesn't end when the winner is crowned. Tickets for the after party will be offered to the public at large too.
