Dear Breeders, Owners and Racing Enthusiasts,

Maine Chance and the Jacobs family are proud to announce the acquisition of a well-bred stallion prospect: Point Lonsdale by blue blooded Australia, out of a super-fast and early Acclamation mare.

Point Lonsdale is in line with our selection criteria for stallions since we brought Silvano to South Africa: tough and consistent over several years. Point Lonsdale is an extremely good looking and correct horse who raced from 7 furlongs with plenty of speed to 12 furlongs 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.

We, the Jacobs family, want to show our commitment to South Africa by bringing in top fresh and different blood that suits all mares in this country.

Our intention is to syndicate at an attractive level for all SA breeders, as we previously did with Silvano and Querari. We would like you to reflect, discuss and consider getting engaged.

We will approach you with syndication offers as from January 13th 2025, after the festive season.

You will find more details and information about Point Lonsdale in the attached brochure.

We also would like to thank everyone that has supported our stallions over the years and the buyers that have supported us purchasing our progeny.

We wish you all a happy holiday season, Merry Christmas and all the best for a prosperous 2025.

Best Regards,

Andreas and Natalie Jacobs
