Sandown Stud continues to deliver high-class performers, with the farm’s latest equine star being the exciting filly, Rodeo Drive.
A daughter of The United States, Rodeo Drive was one of the best two-year-old fillies in South Africa last season, winning impressively twice and finishing runner up in both the Gr1 Allan Robertson Championship and Gr2 World Pool With Gold Circle Debutante.
Sandown will be offering an excellent draft at the BSA August Two-Year-Old Sale 2024, presenting two-year-olds sired by Captain Of All, Futura, Legislate, Soqrat, The United States and William Longsword.
James Armitage had the following comments to make about the potential standouts in this draft:
Lot 99 – Wall Street (c) by The United States ex Dilalah
- A lovely quality colt that has size and scope with a great temperament. By the same sire as Rodeo Drive, this colt hails from the same family as champion Nebraas and outstanding sire Kingmambo to name but two.
Lot 224 – Unnamed (c) by Soqrat ex Mohallela
- A strong athletic colt with a good hindquarter and good eye. By an Equus Champion in Soqrat, this colt is a half-brother to the very smart Arividicio.
Lot 234 – Evening News (c) by Futura ex Noor Dubai
- A half-brother to Nebraas, this colt has a good shape to him and has more scope than his previous siblings. He hails from the family of Breeders’ Cup Mile winners Miesque, Karakontie and Six Perfections.
Lot 265 – Fair Proposal (f) by Legislate ex Rockaberry Lane
- A filly that looks like her mother from a great family – something good has to come from this mare. Is it this Legislate filly? By a stallion with outstanding statistics, this filly’s dam is a three-time winning sister to two Gr1 winners.
Lot 284 – Unnamed (f) by Captain Of All ex Shadows In The Sun
- A very strong scopey filly by Captain Of All with a good hindquarter. By the same sire as dual Gr1 winner Linebacker, bred on the same cross as multiple graded stakes winner Shango.
