It’s been nearly ten years since Pieter Graaff bought Lammerskraal Stud, situated in the bountiful Ceres Valley, and he continues to invest in well-performed mares to buttress the broodmare band.
The farm will showcase five yearlings at CPYS 2024: two by Ideal World and one each by Querari (this colt, Lot 124, is out of the Galileo mare, Cantabella), Futura and What a Winter.
Lot 30
Lot 30, a bay filly called Into Dancing and sired by Ideal World, comes from a renowned Lammerskraal female line.
2nd dam Akinfeet had great success put to Western Winter, throwing Champion Miler in SA in 2013/14, Capetown Noir and 11 x winner, Across the Ice.
11 of her 12 foals to compete won multiple races. Into Dancing is the first foal of In the Dance, who won thrice as a sprinter and was runner-up in the Tibouchina Gr2 and Ipi Tombe Gr2.
Lot 18
Lot 18 is by What a Winter out of the Stakes winning Jet Master mare, Gathering Fame, a winner of four races between 1600m and 2000m.
Old-time racegoers will fondly remember the exploits of 16 x winning Gr1 sprinting star Cordocelli, who pops up in this filly’s pedigree under the third dam, Saucy Elly.
