Maine Chance Farms’ multiple Gr1 winning stallion Vercingetorix reaffirmed a flying start to his stud career
A number of young South African based stallions have made promising starts with their first runners in 2018-2019
Riverton bred R60 000 Cape Ready To Run graduate makes it 100% wins for Maine Chance sire
Maine Chance Silvano stallion Vercingetorix got off the mark with just his second runner when Vaughan Marshall’s Fearless Warrior caught the eye on debut in a Maiden Juvenile Plate run over 1000m at Kenilworth on Saturday
The Turffontein ten-race programme today opens with an 800m juvenile scurry at 12h10 that heralds first runners for Silvano son Vercingetorix and ill-fated National Assembly star Soft Falling Rain
Last week’s Emperors Palace National Yearling Sale saw a flood of young stallions achieve considerable success in the sale ring
Sorrento Stud’s Triple Crown winner Louis The King is the latest addition to a star-studded line-up for the Highlands Stallion Parade
He is one of the very best sons of multiple champion sire Silvano and his 9 lots are turning heads after the first day of public inspections at the Cape Premier Yearling Sale on Thursday
Vercingetorix, who traces directly back in female line to 1000 Guineas winner Problem, is the second son of Silvano to retire to stud in South Africa. He has settled in well at his new Maine Chance home and is all set for the 2015 breeding season
The South African breeding industry is blessed to have Vercingetorix come home to stand at stud, he would not be out of place standing in any country around the world.
Options open and possibilities being investigated as to where the son of Silvano will stand in South Africa
The tongue-twistingly named sprinter was bred and is owned in South Africa, trained by a US-based Brit and will be ridden by a French-based Belgian
