The National Yearling Sale is widely accepted as the holy grail of our thoroughbred sales programme. South Africa’s time honoured nursery of champions is a show with the minimum of bells and whistles, where the honour roll of winners does the serious talking.

Fine Selection

A total of 526 lots will come under the hammer commencing Tuesday 24 April in a bumper and diverse catalogue spanning three days and encompassing all of South Africa’s leading sires and top breeders.

The damlines are strong, with 13 Gr1 winners respresented, including two of our finest racemares of recent years, in Triple Tiara winner Cherry On The Top and top-class Met winner River Jetez.

High Flyers

The 21st century poster boy of this sale, the 2013 R425 000 buy Legal Eagle, won the Gr1 H.F Oppenheimer Horse Chestnut Stakes for a third year running just over a week ago to take his earnings to well over R11 million. It is a timely reminder that the dreams are here for the buying.

Our leading sires are all on show, with promising younger producers Elusive Fort, Gimmethegreenlight, Querari, Twice Over and What A Winter balancing the needs equation.

Stallions represented by first SA yearlings at the sale include Capetown Noir, Captain Of All, Flower Alley, Kingsbarns, Linngari, Soft Falling Rain, Time Thief, Vercingetorix and Wylie Hall.

The exciting Galileo sire Nathaniel –whose very first crop produced European Horse Of The Year and five time Gr1 winner Enable – is also represented.

Housekeeping

For the first time in recent years, the sale will be divided into two sessions, with day one devoted to a select session. The first session, which runs up to lot 231, continues into the second day. Each day of trading will commence at 11h30, with the first day ending on lot 170. Day two will see lots up to 350 go under the hammer, while the third and final day will host the balance of the yearlings on offer.

Michael Holmes, BSA CEO, confirmed that the sale is set to be one of the most well-attended in many years, with a host of local and international enquiries suggesting a vibrant buying bench.

Beyond the champion miler, past alumni of this outstanding sale include recently exported Equus Champion Marinaresco, the Gr1 winner Captain America, another past Horse Of The Year and outstanding sire Dynasty, as well as his champion sons Futura and Legislate.

“The 2018 catalogue is a bumper one and the diversity and range gives everybody a chance to get amongst the action and bid on the next life-changing champion racehorse. South African horses have once again held their own internationally in recent months as we have seen, and there is no better advert for the quality product that we offer than our horses lighting up the world stage.”

Horse Of The Year National Colour and Equus Champion, and smart young sire, Elusive Fort are two other prominent names on the achievement list.

Holmes added that despite our export protocols, the affordability and value factor made the National Yearling Sale the one platform for every conceivable buyer.

Pick of the Bunch from the 2015 Breeders Handbook

CAPETOWN NOIR

A R1m yearling in 2011, Capetown Noir won 8 races from 1200m to 2000m, notably Gr1 Cape Guineas and Gr1 Cape Derby as a 3yo, and Gr1 Queen’s Plate at 4.

He was voted Equus Champion Miler at 3. Rated MR 116.

Capetown Noir started his stud career at Summerhill, his 2015 fee R20.000.

Breeders Handbook considers Capetown Noir’s significant female line ancestor to be the mare Spits, who is closely kinbred. Her main elements are descendants of the mare Agnes Court (Polly Agnes). Spits was mated to Noble Chieftain, a descendant of the Agnes Court female line, resulting in Martha, the 5th dam of Capetown Noir.

Martha’s daughter Donna Anna was mated to Jungle Cove, whose female line has the same remote ancestry (Fam 16), resulting in Jungle Janna. The latter got Guineas winner Dance Every Dance from a mating to Northern Guest, whose significant female line ancestry brought more of Fam 16. Another Western Winter’s son Winter Solstice, Horse of the Year, is from Fam 16 female line. His 5th dam Brandy Ball and Capetown Noir’s 5th dam Martha are very close kin.

Breeders Handbook suggests that suitable lines for Capetown Noir could include multiples of Fam 16 female line carriers, remote or otherwise.

Four Capetown Noir yearlings strike a chord given the above: #138 half sister to three stakes horses and to the dam of another – all by different sires; the current ma�ng gives a 4x2 double of Northern Guest (Maine Chance) #283 half brother to 3 winners, one Gr2 placed, their dam Spring Garland a Gr2/Gr3 winner; the dam is by Rambo Dancer, with Averof and Royal Preroga�ve in the grandam – all of which adds mul�ple Fam 16 (Summerhill) #288 half brother to 7 winners, one a Gr2 winner, their dam unraced, by Northern Guest – who makes for a 4x2 double (Summerhill) #440 colt, out of full sister to No Worries; stakes winning grandam Coastal Waltz is

by Rambo Dancer, with behind that Lord Gayle - all of which adds mul�ple Fam 16 (Summerhill) (find all the stallion’s detail on the Sporting Post website - https://www.sportingpost.co.za/ sire/capetown-noir-2/ ) CAPETOWN NOIR • The sales story so far for 2018 First Season Sire Kamadeva

Pick of the Bunch from the 2015 Breeders Handbook

CAPTAIN OF ALL

A Klawervlei farm-sale graduate, Captain Of All won 7 races from 1000 to 1200m. A Gr1 placed Gr1 Gold Medallion winner at 2, he won Gr1 Tsogo Sun Sprint and Gr1 Mercury Sprint as a 4yo, the year in which he was voted Equus Champion Sprinter. With his MR 126 he is the highest rated offspring of his sire Captain Al. Captain Of All started his stud career at Klawervlei, his 2015 fee published as ‘on applica�on’ (it was R10.000 in 2017).

As possibly significant pedigree elements, Breeders Handbook pinpoints what can loosely be termed Lady Juror kin-links (as in Court Martial, Tudor Minstrel, etc), as well as Buckpasser elements (as in Northern Guest, National Assembly, Seattle Slew/Argosy, Dancing Champ, etc), and Hyperion carriers from the best offspring of Captain Of All’s sire Captain Al (notably dam of Fort Wood, grandam of Badger Land).

Two yearlings make appeal in terms of pedigree elements: #236 filly out of winning dam; the grandam provides mul�ple kin-links to Captain Of All’s significant lines (Riverton Stud) #498 half sister to 7 winners, including Gr1/Gr2 placed Gr3 winner Mambo Mime; the winning US-bred dam provides lines of Buckpasser and Lady Juror kin-links (Avontuur) (find all the stallion’s detail on the Sporting Post website - https://www.sportingpost.co.za/ sire/captain-of-all/ ) CAPTAIN OF ALL • The sales story so far for 2018 First Season Sire 16Bridgets Toga 16Chappel Hill Franktin 16Strikelli Capkuta 16Free As A Bird Storm Commander 16Swannee Rose Lundy’s Lad 16Ruby Cartel 16Zest For Spice 16Red Azalea 16Seal Of Approval 16Matchless Dancer Classy Lass Allmyloving What You Are 16Lute Of Jade 16Glorious Moment 16Rebel Kid Simply Russian Stellar Motion Foxy Lady

Supplement to SPORTING POST • FRIDAY 20th - SUNDAY 22nd APRIL 2018

250 000 Highest advertised fee at conception in 2015 of National Sale yearlings by a South African based sire.

That’s the fee for Dynasty, who stood at R250k in 2015, just a few months after his son Futura made Horse Of The Year.

He has nineteen yearlings on offer, including full brothers to Legislate and Eyes Wide Open, and half siblings to Snowdance, Yorker and French Navy.

Next highest fee that season was for Silvano at R200k.

Interestingly, Captain Al was Champion Sire in 2015, in a four-way finish with Trippi, Dynasty and Silvano – in that order. Less than a million in progeny earnings separated the four stallions, Captain Al’s runners collecting R16.087.976.

33

The highest number of yearlings at the sale by a first-season stallion Way ahead of the established sires are the Wilgerbosdrift pair of Flower Alley (33 yearlings) and Soft Falling Rain (29).

Flower Alley is technically not a firstseason sire, as this is his first local crop – in the USA he’s sire of G1 winners of both sexes, including Kentucky Derby winner I’ll Have Another, now a sire in Japan.

5 000 000 Highest-priced lot ever at the National Sale

It belongs to the Var filly Goddess Var, subsequently renamed Ghaalla on behalf of the buyer, Sheikh Hamdan.

Bred by Varsfontein the filly is a first foal of her one-time winning dam Fidelity, who is a half sister by Captain Al to freshman sire Master Of My Fate.

Ghaalla made her debut on 17 March over 1160m at Turffontein, winning by a shorthead at odds of 5/4. The rest of the runners were five lengths and more in arrears.

30

The total number of vendors of yearlings at the National Sale

That’s a whole lot fewer than last year’s 50 vendors…

162 452

The difference in age in days between the oldest and the youngest yearling at the sale.

The oldest is #296, an Ideal World half brother to a 4-time winner. He’s the third foal of the dam, who is a German bred daughter of sprint mare Tatler. The yearling was born on 17 July 2016, his dam having been covered on 2 September. The early date is no surprise, as the dam has a history of foaling abnormally ‘early’ – for her first foal, the stakes placed 4-time winner, the mare was covered on 11 November and gave birth on 7 September.

The yearling, named Affonso, is consigned by Piemonte Stud.

The youngest is #523, born on Boxing Day, 26 December 2016. Named Sweet Chariot, she’s a half sister by Noble Tune to five winners, their dam a half sister to Gr1 winner Gilded Minaret.

The consignor is Kjell Foundation.

The difference in age between the yearlings is almost half a year…

169

The number of yearlings sired by 10 stallions with 20 or more yearlings on offer.

That’s 48% of the total 526 yearlings catalogued.

The number of yearlings sired by 24 stallions with 10 or more yearlings on offer.

That’s 86% of the total 526 yearlings catalogued.

The highest number of stakes winners to date from a sire x broodmare sire combo at this sale.

Not unexpectedly the combo consists of older names, stallions who have had plenty of opportunity.

In this case it is Champion Sire Captain Al with mares by Champion sire Fort Wood.

From 41 individual runners there were 31 winners, of which 9 stakes winners (22% SW to runners).

The nine stakes winners include Gr1 Captain America and Gr1 William Longsword, who started his stallion career in 2017.

There are 4 lots at Nationals with the cross.

Lot 40 is a half sister to 3 winners and the 4th foal of her dam (Moutonshoek); Lot 172 is half brother to SW Shady World, their dam 3-part sister to Horse Chestnut (Birch Bros); Lot 181 is full brother to Gr3 Captain Splendid (Varsfontein); Lot 212 is a colt, third foal of his 4-time winning dam froma solid Gr1 female line (Mauritzfontein).

Next best of the combo’s (or better perhaps when taken by %) is Dynasty with Jallad mares – 26 runners, 21 winners, 8 stakes winners (31% SW to runners), including Gr1 Eyes Wide Open, Liege and It’s My Turn.

Two lots at Nationals have this cross.

Lot 193 is a full brother to Eyes Wide Open (Highlands); Lot 213 a full brother to Gr3 winner Hashtagyolo, their dam half sister to Master Of My Fate (Varsfontein).

26

The highest number of yearlings at the sale by an established stallion That number of yearlings catalogued is shared by Silvano, Querari and Duke Of Marmalade (whose first local crop are 2yo’s in 2018).

Hot on their heels are Varsfontein stallions Master Of My Fate (much in the news with his first crop of 2yo’s) with 25 yearlings, and Gimmethegreenlight who has 23 catalogued.

Oratorio (22) and last season’s champion freshman sire What A Winter (21) are next.

A $165.000 Keeneland yearling in 2004, Flower Alley won five races from a mile to 2000m on dirt in USA. He won the G1 Travers S. and ran second in the G1 Breeder’s Cup Classic. He was the second highest rated 3yo in USA, with Timeform 127.

At stud he sired G1 Kentucky Derby winner and US Champion 3yo colt I’ll Have Another in his second crop, as well as champion filly My Wandy’s Girl (subsequently sold as broodmare prospect for $700.000).

Flower Alley, a son of US Champion Sire and sire-of-sires Distorted Humor, started his South African studcareer at Wilgerbosdri�. His 2015 fee was R80.000 (with a published ‘book full’).

Breeders Handbook makes the observation that the dam of Flower Alley, Princess Olivia, is by Lycius whose dam is a daughter of Lyphard. Flower Alley’s fourth dam is a daughter of Goofed, the dam of Lyphard. This gives Princess Olivia a 4x4 double of Goofed, and a possible source of breeding excellence. She is dam of stakes winners in Japan, rated TFR 120/123, who are by Deep Impact, whose dam Wind In Her Hair is a daughter of Alzao, by Lyphard. The pedigree of Wind In Her Hair makes her very close kin to Lyphard’s son Elliodor, whose dam is full sister to Busted, the damsire of Wind In Her Hair. Deep Impact is from the same female line as Right Approach, who has several daughters out of Elliodor mares. he grandam of Distorted Humor, Sweetest Chant, is very close kin to Bold Reason and Never Bend. A large proportion of Distorted Humor’s G1 winners have Sadler’s Wells (as sire of dam, grandam, or damsire). Sadler’s Wells’ line of Bold Reason appears significant in his best offspring. Lalun, the dam of Bold Reason and Never Bend, is a noted La Troienne carrier, and La Troienne is invariably present in multiples in Distorted Humor’s best offspring. This apparent affinity for La Troienne (in Flower Alley present through Sadler’s Wells’ damsire Bold Reason) is emphasised in I’ll Have Another whose dam has a double of Bold Reason’s half brother Never Bend and whose damsire Pleasant Tap is from the La Troienne female line. The close resemblance of performance at stud of Distorted Humor and Trippi makes the latter’s daughters interesting options for Flower Alley.

There are a good few Flower Alley yearlings who have notable pedigrees: #2 filly, third foal of unraced Jallad half-sister to Gypsy’s Warning et al. The mare’s first foal is a stakes winner. The yearling’s pedigree shows unusually strong kin-breeding connec�ons along bo�om-lines of sire and dam, including to Goofed. This qualifies as a cracker in Breeder’s Handbook terms. (Varsfontein) #31 half brother to Gr1 Noordhoek Flyer; the grandam is by Dancing Brave, a son of Lyphard (Wilgerbosdri�) #101 colt, first foal of mul�ple Gr1/Gr2 placed Irish dam from a highclass family. The dam rated MR 104 (today that would be 110), and stayed 2000m (as her AR profile of 71/97/88/99/84 shows). The grandam, by Sadler’s Wells, is closely kin-bred, with a strong kin-link to Flower Alley’s grandam (also by Sadler’s Wells). A cracker in pedigree terms. (Wilgerbosdri�) #114 colt, first foal of unraced full sister to champion filly Cherry On The Top, whose dam kin-links to the grandam of Flower Alley – both have Sadler’s Wells. (Mauritzfontein) #129 colt, second foal of winning daughter of Count duBois; the la�er’s dam is by a son of Lyphard, and shows kin-breeding linked through Goofed (Waterford Stud) #164 colt, third foal of winning Jet Master mare, whose dam is by Fort Wood (Sadler’s Wells) (Gary Player Stud) #168 colt, second foal of Gr1 placed SA Oaks winner Ilha Bela, who is by Fort Wood (Sadler’s Wells) out of Ilha da Vitoria (Candy Stripes, whose dam is by Lyphard) (Wilgerbosdri�) #222 half sister to Gr2 winner Trip�que (Trippi), their grandam Gr1 winning Elliodor-mare Perfect Order (Moutonshoek) #249 half brother to stakes performers by Tiger Ridge and Right Approach, their dam a stakes placed 3-part sister to Dynasty, by Fort Wood (Sadler’s Wells) (Wilgerbosdri�) #284 colt, first foal of stakes placed winning mare Square Dance, by Oasis Dream (dam by son of Lyphard out of Mill Reef mare); grandam Front House is by Sadler’s Wells out of mare by Darshaan (grandson of Mill Reef). This is the female line of Blushing Groom, going to Aimee, who is close kin to Goofed (Wilgerbosdri�) #315 filly, whose stakes winning dam is half sister to champion filly Donatella, their dam by Elliodor (Wilgerbosdri�) #317 filly, her dam (half sister to Sun Classique) by Galileo (Sadler’s Wells), with the next dam by Last Tycoon (damsire is Mill Reef) (Hemel ‘n Aarde) #339 half brother to Gr3 winner, their dam closely kin-bred as well as being very close kin to the dam of Distorted Humor (sire of Flower Alley) (Sandown Stud) #380 colt out of stakes winning mare by Fort Wood (Sadler’s Wells) (Moutonshoek) #409 filly, whose unraced dam has a double Lyphard (from Elliodor & Pharly) (Moutonshoek) #429 half brother to highclass Gr2 winner Whiteline Fever (Right Approach), their grandam Ladies Game by Elliodor (Daytona Stud) #463 half brother to two winners, their grandam En�ce The Wind by Elliodor out of Sail The Wind (close kin to Distorted Humor’s 3r dam Gay Sonnet (Moutonshoek) #469 half sister to three winners, their dam by Fort Wood (Sadler’s Wells) from family of Horse Chestnut (Wilgerbosdri�) #526 filly, first foal of winning mare, and kin-bred through Flower Alley’s third dam with the yearling’s fourth dam Mountain Sunshine (full sister to dam of champion Indian Skimmer) (Wilgerbosdri�) (find all the stallion’s detail on the Sporting Post website - https://www.sportingpost.co.za/ sire/flower-alley/ ) FLOWER ALLEY • The sales story so far for 2018 First Season Sire Whisky Train Three Peaks Galactic Storm 16Brora Milford Sound 16Julietta 16Diamond Game Hawthorn Adorable Alley Gypsy Woman White Lace Integrity

Pick of the Bunch from the 2015 Breeders Handbook

SOFT FALLING RAIN

A R350.000 yearling in 2011, So� Falling Rain won 7 races from 1000m to 1600m in South Africa, UK, and Dubai. He was unbeaten in 4 starts as a 2yo and voted Champion 2yo colt.

He was Timeform’s sixth highest rated older horse on 2013, rated 129.

So� Falling Rain started his stud career at Wilgerbosdri�, his 2015 fee R40.000.

Soft Falling Rain is from the US female line of multiple US Champion sire Smart Strike, prompting Breeders Handbook to suggest that kin-breeding to members of that female line might be beneficial. The family is represented in South Africa through Gr1 producing sires Strike Smartly (full brother to Smart Strike, by Mr Prospector), Sail From Seattle (Gone West) and Gr1 winner and sire Jackson. The latter is by Fort Wood’s son Dynasty, while Strike Smartly has stakes winners from mares by Fort Wood.

Soft Falling Rain’s sire National Assembly is out of a mare by Buckpasser, a noted influence also in Danehill (who is close kin to National Assembly), Al Mufti, Northern Guest, and Soft Falling Rain’s 2nd damsire Seattle Slew.

There are a dozen or so yearlings on offer with relevant kin-links, with several stand-outs: #55 colt, second foal of winning half sister to highclass Kavanagh; US-bred grandam Quaes�o is potently kin-bred, and provides a strong link to the female line of So� Falling Rain, through Highbury (Sea�le Slew, Buckpasser). Exci�ng ma�ng in terms of pedigree (Wilgerbosdri�) #80 filly, third foal, half sister to stakes winner Kimberley Star; winning dam is full sister to Gr2 winner Pres�c, by Strike Smartly out of a Fort Wood mare (Mauritzfontein) #115 half sister to stakes winners by Strike Smartly and Sail From Sea�le, including Gr1 Cape Guineas winner Elusive Gold; dam is by Al Mu�i (dam by Buckpasser) (Ascot Stud) #231 half sister to a winner, out of half sister to Dynasty by Tiger Ridge who provides kinlinks to So� Falling Rain (Wilgerbosdri�) #293 colt, third foal of winning dam; grandam by Danehill, who kin-links to So� Falling Rain (Piemonte Stud) #343 filly, first foal of Irish half sister to Gr2 winners in USA and Dubai; the third dam is by Sea�le Slew and kin-links to Highbury, the grandam of So� Falling Rain (Wilgerbosdri�) #352 filly, first foal of Gr2 placed 6-�me winning Singspiel mare who is from the female line of Fort Wood; the dam is strongly kin-bred, providing a solid founda�on; the grandam, who is eqully strongly kinbred, is by Woodman and provides a Buckpasser kinlink to So� Falling Rain. Great stuff as pedigrees go! (Wilgerbosdri�) #417 filly, second foal of winning dam by Tiger Ridge who provides kin-links to So� Falling Rain (Wilgerbosdri�) #450 half brother to 3 winners, out mare by Strike Smartly who provides kin-links to So� Falling Rain (Wilgerbosdri�) #452 filly, third foal of stakes winning dam Ki� Cat who is kinbred through her sire Tiger Dance who is full brother to Giant’s Causeway; the la�er is damsire of So� Falling Rain, and plays a role in the kin-breeding of So� Falling Rain. This together kin-links the kinlinks from sire and dam of the yearling. Good stuff. (Moutonshoek) #460 colt out of Gr1 winner Laverna, who was champion 2yo filly; her dam Enchantress, also an Equus Champion, is by Na�onal Assembly who has a good record with the family. He provides the kin-link to So� Falling Rain in a 2x3 duplica�on. Good stuff.

Pick of the Bunch from the 2015 Breeders Handbook

VERCINGETORIX

A R1.4m yearling in 2011, Vercingetorix raced in SA, Dubai and Hong Kong, winning seven �mes from a mile to 2000m. Undefeated in South Africa, he was voted Equus Champion 3yo Colt. Timeform rated him 124 in 2015, the year a sesamoidal ligament injury ended his racing career in Dubai. He remains Silvano’s highest rated son.

Vercingetorix started his stud career at Maine Chance, his 2015 fee R40.000.

As possibly significant pedigree elements, Breeders Handbook pinpoints lines which kin-link to Vercingetorix’ 3rd dam Scarteen (by Sweet Song) and 4th dam Noble Vixen (by Royal Pardon). This loosely translates as Lady Juror-clan elements.

A second possible angle highlighted is the one of Buckpasser-links.

There are ten yearlings with apparent Breeders Handbook highlights: #153 third foal; half brother to a 5-�me winner; dam is full sister to Gr1 The Sheik and Al Nitak, by Al Mu�i whose dam is by Buckpasser (Boland Stud) #167 half sister to 2 winners by Silvano, including Champion stayer Hot Ticket; grandam Hot Seven provides suitable kin-links (Digteby Stud) #268 second foal of Gr1 placed Gr3 sprinter She’s A Stunner (MR 105), whose bo�om female line ancestor Schonbrunn kin-links to Scarteen in the bo�om line of Vercingetorix.

In addi�on the mare has Buckpasser aplenty: from Danehill (who is close kin to Na�onal Assembly), from Al Mu�i and from Secret Prospector. Good stuff! (Maine Chance) #282 colt, first foal of stakes placed Speed Merchant (by Na�onal Emblem, whose female line provides kin-links); the yearling has Na�onal Assembly 3x3; the bo�om female line provides suitable kin-links (Connemara Stud) #295 colt, first foal of winning dam, who is by Tiger Ridge out of a Danehill mare – both contribu�ng Buckpasser (Hemel ‘n Aarde) #372 colt, second foal of stakes placed Cat’s Paw, whose female line provides a remote Buckpasser (from Coastal) and remote bo�om-line kin-link to Vercingetorix (Maine Chance) #400 half sister to two mul�ple winners (one stakes placed); the Irish-bred dam (by Sadler’s Wells) is closely kin-bred, providing a solid founda�on (Mauritzfontein) #421 colt out of Gr1 winner Gilded Minaret, who is by Al Mu�i out of a Dancing Champ mare, which is a Buckpasser set-up (Millstream Farm) #449 half sister to 2 winners; grandam Cry For The Lion produced Gr1 Aslan (by Silvano), and comes with a host of suitable kin-links for Vercingetorix (The Alchemy) #484 half sister to a winner; dam winning full sister to Gr1 Na�onal Spirit, by Na�onal Emblem (whose female line provides kin-links; the yearling has Na�onal Assembly 3x3 (Rathmor Stud) (find all the stallion’s detail on the Sporting Post website - https://www.sportingpost.co.za/ sire/vercingetorix/ ) VERCINGETORIX • The sales story so far for 2018 First Season Sire 16Clear Gold 16Perfect Diamond Tricky Business Brave Warrior 16Ulwandle 16victory Dance Dogmatix 16Spring Blaster 16Nandi Prince Of Venice Creation 16Giant’s Bounty 16War Path Padre Pio Saguntum 16Classical 16Nocturne 16Ocean’s Swift Sekhmet Tallinn Wisteria Walk

Follow The Fashion Twenty-one years of top prices at Nationals

How long can a sire remain fashionable?

By looking at the top prices at the National Sale over an extended period, patterns arise.

The SI (Sale Index) makes it possible to get perspective from the 21-year period.

SI = Sale Index is the price of the yearling compared to the average price of all yearlings of the same sex at the same sale – an SI of 1.00 means the price is exactly average. Here a bottom cut-off SI of 2.50 was used.

from the 2015 Breeders Handbook

WYLIE HALL

An A$205.000 yearling, Wylie Hall won six races from 1400m to 2450m, at three to five. His wins included the Gr1 SA Derby and Gr1 Champion’s Challenge. He was first past the post in the Gr1 Vodacom July, only to be placed second following an objec�on. He rated MR 119.

Wylie Hall started his stud career at Cheveley Stud, his 2015 fee set at R20.000.

Breeders Handbook suggests that suitable lines for Wylie Hall could include kin-links to the kin-breeding from his sire Redoute’s Choice. This leads to Buckpasser (notably Northern Guest, National Assembly, Lassie Dear), Nijinsky (notably Dancing Champ), Danehill (Caesour, Requiem). Given Wylie Hall’s Australian female line, elements from Marauding combined with the female line could be interesting, leading to Jallad and more generally multiple Hyperion (notably Flower Bowl), Alycidon, Aureole, Donatello. Danzig might count, in the context of National Assembly, Maroof.

Five of his yearlings on offer catch the eye given Breeders Handbook’s views: #83 half sister to seven winners including Equus Champion Capetown Noir; the stakes placed dam was voted Equus Champion Broodmare; the highclass grandam Dance Every Dance is by Northern Guest out of a Jungle Cove mare, both relevant in general terms (Lammerskraal Stud) #105 hal sister to Gr1 placed Gr3 winner Silvan Star (Silvano); the dam is half sister to Bold Silvano, and provides lines of Buckpasser (Seeking The Gold, Al Mu�i) and Nijinsky (Ascot Stud) #184 half brother to 3 winners; dam is half sister to Abashiri and 3-part sister to Yard-Arm; the female line provides Nijinsky through Dancing Champ (Lammerskraal Stud) #305 colt, second foal of winning daughter of Var (grandson of Storm Cat) and Princess Faberge, the la�er by Jallad out of a mare by Russian Fox (Nijinsky) (Sandown Stud) #395 half brother to Gr2 stayer Grey Cossack; the 3-�me winning dam provides a line of Nijnsky through Oulanova who is close kin to Redoute’s Choice’s grandam Dancing Snow (Boland Stud) (find all the stallion’s detail on the Spor�ng Post website - h�ps://www.spor�ngpost.co.za/ sire/wylie-hall/ ) WYLIE HALL • The sales story so far for 2018 First Season Sire 16Durbanite 16Danish Zealot 16kiss From A Rose 16Costly Romance 16Princess Aura 16Queen’s Command 16Cashel Leaf 16Kimberley Club Miss Kylie Tessas Choice 16Valhalla 16Essenelles
