Picture: Vercingetorix (Maine Chance Farms)
A service to Maine Chance Farms’ champion sire Vercingetorix proved the top attraction at the 2026 Cape Breeders Club Stallion Services Auction. The Vercingetorix service made an impressive R420 000 at the online auction. Champion Sire in South Africa last season, Vercingetorix is on track to be crowned Champion Sire again in 2025-2026. His more than 20 black type winners this season include such G1 winners as Double Grand Slam, Grand Empire and Quickstepgal.
Second top priced service was a 2026 cover to Rafeef, with that service making R150 000.
The auction was conducted on the BSA July Online Auction and finished on July 8th.
The Cape Breeders Club would like to thank all the farms and stallion managers who donated services so generously as well as all the breeders who participated in the auction.
