Knagur Green: Due to no response from the CO after the request to maintain or replace the cache, I am archiving it to, stop it showing on the listings and/or to create place for the geocaching community.

The Geocache Maintenance guideline explains a CO's responsibility towards checking and maintaining the cache when problems are reported. Caches that have been archived for lack of maintenance will not be unarchived. This is explained in the Help Center

Geocache Description:

Horse racing is a hugely popular sport in South Africa, with regular racing taking place around the country. The sport in South Africa enjoys a long and rich history that can be traced back to 1797! The first recorded race club meeting took place five years later in 1802.

 


The origins of horseracing in PMB date back to 1864 when the first regulated race meeting was indeed Natal, although Scottsville itself was not established until 1886.
 

It is one of only two racecourses in the world to have a casino.

 It had the largest horse statue in the world, a 14 metre Pegasus which proudly greeted visitors However, as of July 2010, the statue has been demolished due to internal structural damage.
