Breathe deep-this looks to be…

Just The Tonic!

The 41st renewal of South Africa’s oldest and most prestigious thoroughbred auction hosts a bumper 492 lot catalogue over three days at the TBA Sales Complex in Germiston from 3 May.

It is said that when the going gets tough, the you-know-who get going…

After the 2016 NYS reality check – attributed in some quarters to a lack of presence in the upper market – the hosts and our never-say-die breeding fraternity are to be commended for bouncing back with the perfect tonic – a genuine quality bumper and varied catalogue, to lift the spirit in 2017.

The National Yearling Sale has stood the test of time, with graduates having won over 400 Gr1 races. They include some of our biggest names of the last four decades in that illustrious alumni.

The sale has also moved with the times – R7 million is up for grabs by way of the lucrative added value stakes incentive – which has been tweaked to include Gr1, Gr2 and Gr3 races – as well as a unique quick return option of the Maiden Juvenile category!

The 2017 renewal sadly marks the end of an era in South African racing and breeding as numbered amongst the 50 sires is Mauritzfontein’s late, great champion and champion broodmare producer, Fort Wood.

This will be a last opportunity to acquire one of eight yearlings by one of the most influential stallions ever to stand at stud in Africa.

The wise suggest that blood rules the land and the 492 lots include a grey colt (#380) by exciting internationally proven sire Oratorio out of Gr1 Cape Fillies Guineas winner, Emerald Beauty; a Var colt (#401) out of the Gr1 Summer Cup winner Flirtation; a Visionaire filly (#14) out of champion 2yo and Gr1 Allan Robertson winner, Legally Blonde – while multiple Gr1 winner Princess Victoria has a Silvano filly (#112) that will have every man and his dog barking.

If that doesn’t get you there, consider the world-beating possibilities of # 67 – a Captain Al half-sister to champions Rabiya and Bela-Bela from one of our best families.

For those looking for some classic class, try Gr1 Durban July winner Heavy Metal’s half brother (# 97) by Ideal World.

A 2017 July candidate and multiple Gr1 winner, Captain America has a half-brother (#132) by the high-class Judpot, while Sail From Seattle has been on fire with his 11 2yo winners this term and his half-brother (#10) to multiple Gr1 star Smart Banker will fill the auditorium from the opening bell.

And there are plenty more!

Now it’s up to you to put your hand up at the right moment – there should be plenty of those potentially life-changing flashes over the three days. Enjoy!
