Bryanston resident, actress Hayley Owen and Dainfern resident, DJ Alex Caige, attended the most prestigious horse racing event of the year, the Peermont and Emperors Palace Charity Mile.

The event took place at the Turffontein Racecourse on 5 November and residents, Owen and Caige were part of the amazing initiative.
