Winterbach Stud heads to the CTS Ready To Run Sale at the end of this month with just one colt in their draft.
An impressive son of William Longsword, Volcanic Sword is out of the four-time winning Kilauea. By renowned broodmare sire Trippi, the Gr2 and Gr3 placed mare has thrown a powerful first foal.
“Kilauea won over 1200 – 1600m and if her progeny are anything like Mom, we can expect this fellow to be the perfect candidate for the CTS Ready To Run Stakes next year!” enthused Hendrik Winterbach Jnr.
An impressive specimen, the top breeder says the colt is a sound horse with a lot of potential
“He is really not the type of horse you want to miss out on,” he suggests.
