The Cheveley Stud enjoyed a memorable day on World Sports Betting Cape Town Met day earlier this year.
Not only did the Cheveley bred Rascova win the G1 Maine Chance Farms Majorca Stakes on Met day, but the Cheveley Stud bred G1 Hollywoodbets Durban July winner Oriental Charm was beaten just half a length when runner up in the Met itself.
Between them, Oriental Charm and Rascova (who has a half-brother on offer at the National Sale) have won six graded stakes races and earned over R7.161 million in stakes.
Vaughan Koster will be offering a small but select draft at the 2025 National Yearling Sale, with Cheveley’s National Sale string made up of yearlings sired by Malmoos, Querari and Rafeef. Cheveley’s four yearlings, one offered on behalf of Cheveley’s Grooms Incentive Scheme, all hail from top-class families, making this a draft not to miss.
Lot 150: f Querari -Juniper Spring
By the sire of G1 winning fillies Bavarian Beauty and Querari Falcon, this filly is out of a stakes winning full-sister to G1 Cape Fillies Guineas/G1 Majorca Stakes winner Snowdance, herself the dam of G1 Hollywoodbets Cape Guineas winner Snow Pilot and the very classy Symphony In White. A direct descendant of Cheveley’s late, great mare Mystic Spring, this filly’s dam is also closely related to the Captain Al sired dam of this season’s G1 World Sports Betting Met/G1 SplashOut Cape Derby winner Eight On Eighteen.
Lot 210: c Malmoos -Netsuke
From the first crop of his Triple Crown winning sire, this colt is a half-brother to the aforementioned G1 Maine Chance Farms Majorca Stakes winner Rascova and three other winners. His dam Netsuke is a five time winning own-sister to G1 SA Fillies Sprint runner up Maelstrom and half-sister to G2 Post Merchants winner Mike’s Choice.
Lot 300: c Rafeef -Statute
By one of South Africa’s top sires, this colt is out of the Cheveley bred Listed Jockey Club Stakes winner Statute, a full-sister to the Cheveley Stud bred Horse Of The Year and successful sire Legislate. The family of G1 winners Gabor and Roxanne.
Lot 281: f Querari -Siena’s Star
By the same sire as recent G1 Wilgerbosdrift H F Oppenheimer Horse Chestnut Stakes winner Cosmic Speed, this filly is a half-sister to four winners including G3 World Sports Betting Variety Club Mile winner Without Question and Listed Europa Point Drum Star Handicap winner Infinite Wonder. A filly with plenty of paddock value, her dam is a half-sister to multiple stakes winning filly Rush For John.
Cheveley’s quartet can be found in Blocks B and C at the TBA Complex in Germiston.
