"Zeerogate"? Am I reading that correctly?

An impressive piece of silver.

"Land River" is Zand River

"Zeerogate" is almost certainly wrong, could be Zeekoegat - one in the Cape and one in the Transvaal recorded so far. I can't find a connection with the regiment, nor did they suffer any casualties on that date.
