Klawervlei Stud, whose numerous top-class graduates include such recent G1 stars Kommetdieding, Linebacker, Russian Rock and this season’s G1 WSB SA Classic winner Anfields Rocket, will be offering a top-class draft at this year’s KZN Yearling Sale. With their string headed by yearlings sired by such star stallions as Gimmethegreenlight, Querari, Rafeef and Vercingetorix, Klawervlei’s KZN Sale draft looks bound to find favour with discerning buyers.
Champion sire Gimmethegreenlight, whose flagbearers this season include such G1 winners as Bless My Stars, Gimme A Prince and Lucky Lad, has two impeccably bred yearlings on offer in the form of a filly (Lot 13) out of dual G1 winner, and Equus Champion, Return Flight, and a colt (Lot 139) who is a three-parts brother to the useful Gimmethegreenlight sired runner Prince Of Fire.
The Klawervlei Stud bred Vercingetorix is another top-class stallion represented here, with Silvano’s champion son responsible for a colt (Lot 58) who sports a real stallion’s pedigree. Out of a mare by the mighty Galileo, this colt is out of a three-parts sister to the stakes winning dam of champion Taghrooda, and is from the family of G1 winning siblings Ebadiyla, Edabiya, Enzeli and Estimate among many others.
Former Gauteng Fillies Guineas winner Heaps Of Fun has a Querari filly (Lot 134) on sale, with Querari also represented here by a filly (Lot 41) out of G1 Allan Robertson Championship winner The Secret Is Out, herself a full-sister to Equus Champion and fellow Allan Robertson Championship winner All Is Secret.
Yet another high-class racemare with a yearling offered for sale by Klawervlei this year is the Silvano sired Oaks Trial winner Chariot Of Gold. The latter, whose stakes winning dam is a half-sister to G1 Vodacom Durban July winner and successful sire Pomodoro, has a Captain Of All colt (Lot 94) on the KZN Yearling Sale, while Chariot Of Gold’s three-parts sister Cranberry Gold has a filly (Lot 101) by the exciting Rafeef on offer.
