That's correct.
With Back In Business trained by Joe Soma winning the last leg of the Pick 6 at Turffontein, there were eventually 5,41 winning tickets, with the dividend per full ticket a whopping R1,104,439.
Soma's charge, ridden by S'manga Khumalo, was highly fancied and he did not disappoint.
Back In Business is now unbeaten in two starts and this son of William Longsword looks to have many more victories in him.
He won his maiden by a shorthead over 1160m, the same distance and over the same course as his victory in yesterday's Alboran Sea MR76 Handicap.
"When he won his last start, he looked completely beat. With 100m to go, there was no way he was going to get up, but he did.
"His win today against stronger is the result of natural improvement. That's the way we train our horses.
"His work has been outstanding leading up to this race.
"I told everyone that it will be the last time a bookmaker will offer 5-1 on him. This is a top, top horse. I've said it from day one."
