Black Swan Stud manager Walter Cowe tends to a member of the stud’s Sale’s draft
Black Swan Stud, the home to champion and highly successful sire Elusive Fort, continues to produce a number of top-class performers. Cape Town MET runner-up and now sire, Last Winter, and the winner of the first two legs of the Triple Tiara, Siren’s Call, head the list of stakes winners produced, which also includes Freedom Charter, Sarah, Pretty Betty, Helen’s Ideal, Major Attraction, Ernie.
Walter Cowe will be bringing three high-class fillies, offered by Black Swan Stud as Agent, to the upcoming Two-Year-Old Sale, and had the following comments to make about his trio:
Lot 46: Unnamed – Elusive Fort – Omaticaya (filly):
By the same sire as top-class fillies Lauderdale, Siren’s Call and Secret Potion, this filly is a direct descendant of Irish 1000 Guineas winner Miralla. Out of a classy listed winning mare, this filly has grown into a real nice type. She has always looked the part for me. She is tall and elegant with a lovely long stride. She’ll be a clever buy for someone.
Lot 100: Unnamed – Elusive Fort – Valediction (filly):
This filly shares her multiple Gr 1 winning sire Elusive Fort with Gr 1 Vodacom Durban July/Gr 1 World Sports Betting Cape Town MET winner Kommetdieding among many others. Out of a four-time winning mare, this Elusive Fort filly is small but perfectly packaged. She will be a fun horse to race.
Lot 148: Unnamed – Erupt – Fynbos (filly):
By a dual Gr 1 winning son of the legendary stallion Dubawi, this filly’s granddam is the Silvano sired Gr 1 Cape Fillies Guineas winner Field Flower. A first foal out of the half-sister to Last Winter, I think this is a powerful precocious filly that you won’t have wait long for. She is correct and looks like a classy horse.
