The CTS Ready To Run history. Plenty of feelgood stories of many happy returns on investment.
Our 2017 poster boy Cirillo cost R60 000. He has earned R4 937 750 – and he is only a 4yo.
A year earlier, the hammer fell on globetrotter Yulong Prince for R550 000. He has banked R4,5 million and based at a top stable Down Under, the sky’s surely still the limit.
169 lots representing a spectrum for every taste and pocket come under the hammer on Friday 22 November at Durbanville. See them go through their paces from 09h00.
From the nurseries of some of our leading farms, the 2019 offering includes the offspring of the country’s top active sires from 2018/19 in Silvano (2 lots) Twice Over (10), VAR (4) and Gimmethegreenlight (13), while recent log-topper, internationally proven sire Oratorio, has six catalogued.
The fun doesn’t end there – if you are feeling astutely sentimental, this sale also presents the very last opportunity to buy an offspring of the late sensational classic sire Captain Al. He has a filly and colt on the roster.
The sons and daughters of the recently deceased Dynasty are always in demand and the champion son of Fort Wood has two colts and a filly in the catalogue. Former Champion stallion Trippi, has a quartet of two-year-olds going through the ring.
Newer kids on the block include last season’s champion freshman Captain Of All (3), runner-up Vercingetorix (5), the red hot Querari (12), Master Of My Fate (6), Coup de Grace (6), while Flower Alley, Global View and Louis the King have 5 apiece, with What a Winter has a sextet.
There are three lots by international sires Maxios, Uncle Mo, Zoffany, all G1 winners who have already sired Gr1 winners.
There are 10 siblings to Gr1 winners, while the illustrious list of CTS R2R graduates include the likes of Gr1 winners Captain America, Red Ray, Rabada, Brave Mary, Hero’s Honour, Takingthepeace, Always In Charge, Brutal Force, Liege and French Navy.
Rewards Are Here!

There are 21 stakes races for 2yo’s in the 2019/20 season with the first on Sun Met day, 1 February. This gives the early maturing graduates the opportunity to earn significant stakes within a short period of time.
All graduates sold will qualify for a R1,25-million race for 3yo’s , to be staged the day after the 2020 Ready To Run Sale.
This will be the richest sales race in South Africa, aimed at, and being staged at the right time for those thoroughbreds who take a bit more time to mature.
