With the TBA complex buzzing with excitement, the first day of the 2019 National Yearling Sale produced a record-breaking high when Mark Richards of the Hong Kong Jockey Club and Mike de Kock took each other on like two heavyweight boxers and fought tooth and nail ringside to secure Lot 184, Masaki, a colt by champion stallion Silvano from Quickwood (Fort Wood).
Tony Millard and John Freeman, involved in the early scuffle, left the ring in the R5-million range as the final bidding pair went toe-to-toe and refused to give in.
With gasps going up around the arena, De Kock eventually claimed the shot of the auctioneer’s hammer at R9-million, which surpassed the previous highest price paid for a yearling at a South African thoroughbred sale by R3-million (R6-million CTS, 2016) and the BSA record of R5,2-million (2018).
That was an almost surreal flashback to fifteen months ago, when times were already testing, but we hadn’t yet heard of, or felt the brunt of, the COVID-19 pandemic or experienced the implosion of South Africa’s biggest racing operator, Phumelela.
Ironically the sale opening day, Friday, is also the day that stakeholders were supposed to hear of the plans to rescue the beleaguered company. The outcome of that (delayed to 18 August) could set the road map for stakes and leadership – two issues that have proven serious shortcomings for this great game over the past two decades.
But life has to go on – there are high-quality horses to be sold and races to be run and South Africa’s oldest premier yearling sale, the Emperors Palace National Yearling Sale will be held over two days – Friday 31 July and Saturday 1 August – at the regular venue of the TBA Sales Complex in Germiston.
Day 1 is Friday 31 July from 11H30
Lot 1 – 230 will go through the ring.
Day 2 is Saturday 1 August from 11H30
Lot 231 – 479 will go through the ring.
Breeders report a steady flow of trainers and bloodstock agents inspecting horses and the buzz was building nicely on Tuesday.
The catalogue, despite withdrawals, is a quality one of diversity from a wide range of proven breeders.
And the past graduates tell a story – Futura, Legislate, Legal Eagle and reigning South African Horse Of The Year Do It Again, as well as Kilindini and Missisippi Burning –the winners of this season’s Gr1 Cape Guineas and Gr1 World Sports Betting Cape Fillies Guineas respectively.
