Maine Chance Farms and the Jacobs family have announced the acquisition of a well-bred stallion prospect in Point Lonsdale, who is by blue blooded Australia, out of a super-fast and early Acclamation mare.
In a statement, the family said that Point Lonsdale is in line with their selection criteria for stallions that commenced when they brought Silvano to South Africa: tough and consistent over several years.
Point Lonsdale is an extremely good looking and correct horse who raced from 1400m with plenty of speed to 2400m with enough stamina to stay on.
He is out of the Acclamation mare Sweepstake, who was precocious and early: qualities that have replicated in her progeny. She has produced a full brother to Point Lonsdale – Broome – who was a Champion Older Male in 2021-22.
The Jacobs family are showing their commitment to South Africa by bringing in top fresh and different blood that suits all mares.
Their intention is to syndicate at an attractive level for all SA breeders, as they previously did with Silvano and Querari.
Syndication details will be published on 13 January 2025.

They thanked everyone that has supported their stallions over the years and the buyers that have supported them in purchasing their progeny and wished all a happy holiday season, Merry Christmas and all the best for a prosperous 2025.
