South Africa’s racing presenters are usually a clean cut group, but don’t be surprised to see them looking a bit scraggly for the next month, because they are taking part in the Movember Challenge!

This challenge is constituted of various charity options, including the one the presenters will be participating in i.e. growing a moustache for the whole of November, in order to raise awareness and funds for men’s health issues, including prostate cancer, testicular cancer, and mental health and suicide prevention.
